Hi Alexander, I really like your article so far, and think you are definitely on the right track. I like that you also added some visuals. So far, it has a neutral tone, and you have also done a great job with adding citations. However, would it be possible to use any peer-reviewed or systematic review citations as well? I see that it is in your outline, but I would also love to see more discussion on the variability of health around the world due to the urban setup of transportation or rural areas that lack a lot of urban transport and how their health is. Since you are talking about Transport and Health, I wanted to suggest looking into Blue Zones of the world. These are areas of the world with some of the long-living communities, and some changes they have made is creating effective transportation lanes for bikes, which is not only good for the people's health, but also the environment. Here's an example of some articles: https://www.bluezones.com/2018/05/could-switching-up-your-commute-increase-longevity/ and https://www.bluezones.com/services/walkability-solutions/. They have a lot of projects that are designed towards improving health through transportation. Besides that, I think you have a good outline so far, and can't wait to read more!
