Abstract

Pedestrian attitudes and behaviour in attitudes and behaviour in suburban environments were examined. Nine case studies were mode to determine the role of walking as an exclusive mode of travel. The sites examined accounted for 3 major types of pedestrian facilities: overpasses, tunnels, and at-grade crossings. Various pedestrian characteristics were found to be related to walking activity. Acceptable walking distances up to about 0.4 km were given for adults.
