- Safety. Currently, people do not feel safe walking or biking in Franklin. In many neighborhoods, there is no dedicated space for pedestrians and bicyclists and cars travel too fast and too close. Providing for adequate spaces for all users will reduce accidents and increase a sense of security. \nProviding options. Not everyone uses a personal vehicle as their means of transportation. Some Franklinites are too young, too old, cannot afford a car, have a disability or choose not to drive. It is important to provide alternative and reasonable choices for everyone. \nHealth. As the reliance on the personal vehicle has increased, so has the rate of obesity. Currently, more than 60% of Minnesotans are overweight, which, if left unchecked will result in $3.7 billion additional health care costs by 2020. By providing residents and workers with options to bike and walk, more may be willing to do so, possibly helping to reduce health care costs and obesity rates. \nCommunity and Economic Development. The desire to live and work in highly walkable neighborhoods, especially by both empty nesters and young professionals, is a highly documented phenomenon that occurred in the last two decades. In fact, now major real estate agencies provide “walkability scores” on home listings as this has become such an important aspect of finding a home to homebuyers. Homeowners are searching for neighborhoods with great accessibility, local amenities and attractions and exciting, lively commercial areas. In fact, a national study has shown that home values in more walkable neighborhoods have higher values. Additionally, businesses that provide access to all users and a safe design attract more business. \n\n
