Walkability and pedestrian facilities in Asian cities: state and issues - draft [1]

This new ADB study on the current pedestrian infrastructure in 13 selected Asian cities recommends specific actions that can be undertaken by different stakeholders in improving the walkability in Asian cities.

 

 

This study provides information on the current pedestrian infrastructure in selected cities and can be used to develop and propose pedestrian-focused solutions for Asian cities. The development and use of the walkability assessment methodology can raise awareness and generate interest amongst policy makers and city officials and help them to improve walking in cities. The study includes: field walkability surveys in 13 Asian cities; pedestrian interview surveys; and an assessment of the current pedestrian-related policies and guidelines in the cities, including discussions and interviews with public sector representatives.
