Several walkability studies have focused primarily on macro-level environmental factors.
Nevertheless, previous research has shown that street-level design can also support …

In this paper, we evaluate different elements of the urban micro-scale environment in eight
European capitals' downtown areas (ie Vienna, Copenhagen, Warsaw, Madrid, Brussels …

A growing body of empirical findings suggests that more satisfactory, compact, and
traversable built environments can positively influence active travel, physical activity, and the …

This research sets an example of how large-scale walkability indices can be transformed
into microscale walkability indices through a systematic evaluation of the different local …

Walking is undoubtedly a sustainable and healthy mode of transport. However, the decision
to walk is influenced by many built environment and streetscape attributes. Specifically, the …

Numerous methodologies measuring walkability have been developed over the last years.
This paper reviews the Walkability Index (WI) literature of the last decade (2009–2018) and …

Although walkability assessments have enjoyed recent popularity, walkability measures
usually often omitted microscale attributes and pedestrian perceptions of the built …

Accepted: 20 May 2021 To date, several macro-level walkability measures have been
proposed, but microscale and audit-based walkability approaches prove to be highly …

Introduction This paper introduces OS-WALK-EU, a new open-source walkability
assessment tool developed specifically for urban neighbourhoods and using open-source …

Much of the physical activity and built environment literature has focused on composite
walkability indices based on the D variables–design, density, diversity, destination …
