The impact of microscale street elements on active transport of mobility-restricted individuals: A systematic review

Alexandra-Ioana Georgescu, Hoda Allahbakhshi, Robert Weibel

Abstract

Ensuring adequate spatial accessibility to diverse facilities is essential to shaping sustainable, inclusive cities and increasing the well-being of citizens. However, mobility-restricted individuals are found to have lower spatial accessibility in urban areas due to contextual factors, such as physical barriers. Most accessibility assessments focus on the general population and use the road network, due to the lack of data on how contextual factors influence different individuals and lack of geographical data representing pedestrian infrastructure or accessibility features.
