In May 2009, a team of 12 transportation professionals with expertise in bicycling and walking from the United States visited five countries in Europe (Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom) to identify and assess effective approaches to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety and mobility. The countries were chosen because of their innovative approaches to nonmotorized transportation, as well as the potential transferability of their policies and practices. The scan team identified numerous possible approaches to improving pedestrian and bicyclist safety and mobility in the U.S. The scan team also prepared a list of implementation items for those approaches that should be pursued in the U.S. This summary report provides a quick‐response overview of the team’s findings and recommendations.
