ABSTRACT
This article explores the role of the national health initiative for increased physical activity and its association with public transit. Numeric measurements, such as the number of steps walked and the amount of energy consumed, fail to account for the experience of bus users navigating the bus stop. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, this study focuses on the armatures in between movement. The embodied experience shows the value of predictive health indicators. This awareness fills the gap toward a more effective program of active transportation and guides improvements in transport policy, such as the importance for a better bus stop design.
