The N.H. Department of Transportation is tackling a plan for the next decade to improve how we get around in the state, on foot and by bike. We look at the state planning process, and how walkers and bikers can weigh in on problem areas. We also discuss how different kinds of cyclists and pedestrians (including children) impact state and regional planning, and how streets are rated for traffic stress. NHPR's Sam Evans-Brown, host of Outside/In, is guest host. GUESTS: Scott Bogle - Senior Transportation Planner, Rockingham Planning Commission . Phil Goff - New England Planning Leader at Alta Planning +Design , the lead consultant on the N.H. Department of Transportation Statewide Pedestrian and Bicycle Transportation plan project. Victoria Sheehan - N.H. Department of Transportation Commissioner. Find the N.H. D.O.T.
