Question 5 • S1S-OC: Health (EN5101)

A city government would like to reduce injuries in the community. Which steps can be taken? Check all that apply.increase the number of employees who repair roads and sidewalksinstall pedestrian bridges over roadwaysdecrease lighting along walking trailsbuild more protected bike lanes and chirping crosswalk signalsextend the hours that public pools are open during the summer

Answer
A
increase the number of employees who repair roads and sidewalks
B
install pedestrian bridges over roadways
C
decrease lighting along walking trails
D
build more protected bike lanes and chirping crosswalk signals
E
extend the hours that public pools are open during the summer

Explanation

Repairing roads and sidewalks can remove hazards that cause trips and falls. Pedestrian bridges separate people walking from vehicle traffic, while protected bike lanes and chirping crosswalk signals help prevent collisions. Decreasing trail lighting would make walking less safe, and extending pool hours does not directly address the injury hazards identified here.
