Revolutionizing Urban Mobility: The Power of ActiveScore and ModeScore Certifications

Imagine a world where buildings actively encourage healthier lifestyles and sustainable transportation. Below, we break down how ActiveScore and ModeScore certifications are helping to make this possible.

Breaking Down the Certifications

ActiveScore is a comprehensive evaluation of how well a building supports human-powered movement. From state-of-the-art cycling facilities to thoughtfully designed end-of-trip amenities, ActiveScore examines every aspect of active travel infrastructure. This accreditation signifies expertise in designing, implementing, and assessing buildings for active travel such as walking and cycling.

Meanwhile, ModeScore takes a broader view, recognizing excellence in multi-modal transportation options. This forward-thinking certification evaluates how effectively projects integrate public transit, cycling paths, pedestrian access, and EV infrastructure—essentially, how easily people can move around without relying on traditional gas-powered vehicles.

Creating Ripple Effects

The benefits of these certifications extend far beyond their immediate scope:

• An ActiveScore Gold certification contributes directly to the WELL Movement Feature V04: Facilities for Active Occupants

• Projects with ModeScore Gold certification earn 10 valuable marks toward BREEAM sustainable transport measures

• Both certifications are recognized by GRESB as partial green building certifications for both design/construction and an operational green building certification scheme.
