CHAPTER 4: YOUR


            TRANSPORTATION FUTURE


            Whether you live in an urban, suburban, or rural
            community, alone or with others, you hold the keys
            to your transportation future. With a little research on
            available transportation options, with a focus on your
            unique needs, it is possible to get anywhere you need to
            go without driving. In this chapter, we will take what you
            have learned to help you create a transportation plan
            and put that plan into action!

            Let’s get started by walking through a few keys steps
            and worksheets to build your transportation plan. There
            are examples of the worksheets in this chapter and
            blank copies can be found in the Appendix or can be
            downloaded at SafeMobilityFL.com.


            IDENTIFY YOUR TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS

            The first step in creating your transportation plan is
            to identify all your available transportation options.                  CHAPTER  4
            As mentioned earlier, not all options are available
            everywhere, but you might be surprised to learn about
            other ways you can get around your community. “My
            Transportation Options” worksheet will help summarize
            each option, including times available, cost, and what
            you might need to bring with you when using this
            option. Keep in mind that this list can grow and change
            over time. It could be helpful to review and update
            this worksheet every few months depending on your
            transportation needs.
