摘 要:步行友好性被认为是塑造前工业化城市的一个关键因素,如今它被作为实现可持续城市设计和弹性社区的中心元素而推广。本文旨在确定亚布里斯班,这一澳大利亚发展最快的城市之一的可步行性概况。这项研究希望了解布里斯班的特定城市条件是否会影响人们对步行的态度。通过定量的方法收集了布里斯班的步行性数据后,调查结果显示,布里斯班的行人平均每天步行28-35分钟,最多每日步行3.3公里。研究还表明,年龄不是影响步行时间或距离的关键因素,10公里以下距离的步行移动速度与其他交通方式(汽车和公共交通)的平均速度相当。本研究是一项初步研究,旨在了解布里斯班的步行友好性,并为该地区未来的可持续城市设计研究提供信息。
Abstract:Walkability is considered a critical factor that has shaped pre-industrial cities, and today it is promoted as the central element to achieve sustainable urban design and resilient communities. This paper aims to identify walkability profiles specific to Brisbane, Australia, one of the Australasian region’s fastest growing cities. The study seeks to understand if the specific urban conditions of Brisbane impact people’s attitude towards walking. Data on Brisbane walkability have been collected through a quantitative methodology; findings reveal that Brisbane pedestrians walk an average of 28-35 minutes daily, covering a maximum of 3.3 kilometers. The research also indicates that age is not a critical factor influencing walking times or distances and that the movement speed for distances below 10 kilometers is comparable to the average of other transport modes (car and public transport). This research is a pilot study to understand Brisbane’s walkability and to inform future research on sustainable urban design in the region.
