Cyclists/Pedestrians Motor Vehicle Collisions, 2009 - 2014 (Manitoba Public Insurance): The number of collisions between cyclists/pedestrians and motor vehicles in the years 2009 - 2014 reported to Manitoba Public Insurance. These data were obtained by CBC News (Manitoba) directly from Manitoba Public Insurance and were used to prepare the story Winnipeg's Most Dangerous Intersection for Cyclists (Sept. 19, 2016). Collisions illustrated on the map represent only 65% of all cyclists/pedestrian collisions that occurred in 2009-2014 (as precise intersection information was missing for 35% of collisions).
Walkability 2015: Walkability is a measure of how how well a community promotes active forms of transportation, such as walking as opposed to inactive forms of transportation such as driving a car. A highly walkable community has a wide variety of destinations within walking distance, a well connected street network with sidewalks, and usually a high population density.
The Walkability index for the Winnipeg Health Region was calculated by combining the following inputs:
% of Commuters Using Active Transportation, 2016: % of commuters walking, cycling or using the bus to get to work. Derived from the 2016 Census and calculated at the dissemination area level. See the the layer description on the main Data Dictionary Page (Social/Environment Conditions, % Commuters Using Public Transit 2016 tab)
% Commuters Driving: % of commuters using a car (either as a driver or passenger) to get to work. Derived from the 2016 Census and calculated at the dissemination area level. See the the layer description on the main Data Dictionary Page (Social/Environment Conditions, % Commuters Using Public Transit 2016 tab)
% Commuters Cycling: % of commuters cycling to get to work. Derived from the 2016 Census and calculated at the Census Tract level in order to preserve stable rate estimates. See the layer description on the main Data Dictionary Page (Social/Environment Conditions, % Commuters Using Public Transit 2016 tab).
% Commuters Walking: % of commuters walking to get to work. Derived from the 2016 Census and calculated at the Census Tract level to preserve stable rate estimates. See the layer description on the main Data Dictionary Page (Social/Environment Conditions, % Commuters Using Public Transit 2016 tab).
Median Household Income, 2015: Median household income. Derived from the 2016 Census, calculated at the dissemination area level. See layer description on the main Data Dictionary Page (Pop. Characteristics tab, Median Household Income layer)

A highly walkable community has a wide variety of destinations within walking distance, a well connected street network with sidewalks, and usually a high population density.
The Walkability index for the Winnipeg Health Region was calculated by combining the following inputs:
- the 2011 residential population;
- the density of amenities (stores, restaurants, commercial establishments and services)
- the density of street intersections with 4 or more incoming roads
