WalkWorks Funds the Development of Active Transportation Plans
See below for a list of WalkWorks grant recipients from previous years, with links to their plans and policies. With the assistance of transportation experts, a range of stakeholders, and public input, these communities have demonstrated their commitment to encouraging physical activity and improving health by prioritizing active transportation. These plans propose physical, policy, and process improvements to their transportation networks that the communities will work to implement moving forward. WalkWorks looks forward to the same from its newest awardees!

WalkWorks Walking Routes
Prior to funding the development of Active Transportation Plans, the WalkWorks program supported municipalities across the Commonwealth in establishing WalkWorks walking routes. The routes were 1–2-mile courses that could be used by people of all ages and abilities to engage in physical activity, socialize with friends and family, and enjoy the scenery of the local community. Following struggles to identify a reasonable loop or route within several communities, the WalkWorks program to provide funding and technical assistance for the development of Active Transportation Plans was established.
