Blue Zones Project in Fort Worth

February 24,2015


Built Environment Workshops

February 28 - March 3, 2015

Join the movement that's making healthy choices easier in Fort Worth.
Together we can transform well-being and make our community a healthier, happier place to live, work, and play.

Be inspired to see Fort Worth from a different angle and discover opportunities to make your neighborhood a safer, more liveable and walkable community.

The Building Healthy Neighborhoods workshops will show you how you can play a role in making sure your neighborhood is more walkable and livable for all users, ages, and abilities. At each workshop, Dan Burden, nationally recognized walkability expert, will explain the concept of context-sensitive design and Complete Streets and show you how to view streets through a walkable, livable lens. All Fort Worth residents are encouraged to attend the free workshops. Find the workshop in your part of the city!
