Abstract
Active mobility modes are all modes of transportation that involve physical activity and do not require the use of motorized vehicles. Although active modes of mobility include walking, jogging, running, bicycling, small-wheeled transport (skates, skateboards, push scooters, and hand carts, among others – also referred to as micro-mobility), and wheelchair travel, the designation active modes refers commonly to walking and biking.
