Analysis Results. Source: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. (2013) Table 8 shows the ITHIM predicted health benefits of the two active transportation scenarios. The numbers of change in burden of disease and the % attributable benefits are both compared to the corresponding numbers of the BAU scenario. Table 9 shows the comparison of benefits between the LCD and C/PAG scenarios. Compared with the BAU scenario, the ITHIM model for the C/PAG scenario predicted a reduction in the number of premature deaths by 2,404 and a reduction of 44,866 total DALYs (i.e., the sum of years of life lost and years living with disability) per year (see Table 8). The burden resulting from road traffic injuries increased for the ST scenario by 11% (3,320 DALYs) and 19% (5,907 DALYs) for the C/PAG scenario, compared with BAU, as a result of an increase in collisions involving cars, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Compared with LCD, the C/PAG scenario had the larger net decrease in total disease (see (Table 9). The reduced PM2.5 concentrations associated with LCD compared with BAU resulted in 22 (1%<) premature deaths and 232 (1%<) years of life lost as a result of cardiovascular diseases, lung cancer, and nonmalignant respiratory diseases, suggesting the relatively smaller risk for these diseases from PM2.5 exposure when compared with physical inactivity. The ITHIM implementation in the Bay area demonstrated that active transportation has the potential to substantially lower both the carbon emissions and burden of disease. By committing to a modal shift in favor of active transportation with LCD technologies, a significant level of GHGE reduction goals can be achieved with better public health status for a region. It also demonstrated that ITHIM can be used with a regional travel demand model to estimate and predict the health benefits associated with proposed transportation projects and/or long-range transportation plans for the region. It is important to note that the presentation of estimated health benefits unrealistically assumed that the reductions in premature deaths and DAYLs occur in the planning horizon year (e.g., 2035). However, the achievement of health benefits such as reduction in the prevalence of chronic diseases from increased physical activities requires some time to manifest in the population. In future implementations of ITHIM. According to WHO (2017), based on expert consensus, five years is a reasonable assumption for newly initiated physical activities to reach full benefits, with an increase of 20% each year.
