Pikesville Needs Sidewalks Now
Join a Community Project promoting safety, health, home value, and more...
4500 pedestrians are killed in traffic crashes in the US each year. 8% of these deaths are “walking along the roadway” tragedies, and 88% could be prevented by SIDEWALKS.
*Statistics provided by the US Dept of Transportation Federal Highway Administration
Roads without sidewalks have double the pedestrian crashes as roads with sidewalks.
“8 in 10 Americans prefer being in a community with sidewalks and good places to walk.” ~AARP.org
Walkable streets bring people together bridging age, race, and economic gaps. In a busy world, we often don’t know our neighbors, and sidewalks are a wonderful place to make new friends, start conversations, network, and enjoy common ground both literally and figuratively. One study found that people in walkable neighborhoods had 80% more “social capital” than car-dependent neighborhoods.
Research shows that people choose to walk for recreational purposes when comfortable facilities like sidewalks are provided.
Walking is one of the easiest, most beneficial forms of exercise, while inactivity is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide.
For people over 60, walking just 15 minutes a day can reduce the risk of death by 22%. A 30-minute walk burns 100 calories, and for every 12 blocks walked, your risk of obesity drops 4.8%. Regular walking may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and colon cancer.
“People who live in neighborhoods with sidewalks are 47% more likely to be active for at least 39 minutes a day.” ~AARP.org
For local Jewish community members who don’t drive on the Sabbath, sidewalks make visiting family and friends possible in a safe and convenient way.
When neighborhoods are safer and more accessible, property values rise. Pedestrianizing a street can make home values go up $82 a square foot. According to a 2009 CEOs for Cities report, even a one-point increase in a community’s Walk Score could increase home values by $700 to $3,000.
Please reach out to your elected official TODAY
to request sidewalks in the Old Court/Seven Mile area to
to make this neighborhood safer!
