A Study on Walkability grasped from Environment both of "Easy to Walk" and "Encouragement to Walk" that supports Walking

In order to clarify the walkability of the urban environment, it is necessary to investigate not only the required behaviors but also voluntary behaviors. The purpose of this study is to clarify the characteristics that a walkable urban environment in urban areas of Osaka should have from the optional action of walking. First, the authors grasped the relationship between walks and environmental factors on a regional basis. Next, the authors grasped what kind of route was taken for what reason. In order to create a walkable urban environment that induces voluntary behavior in residential areas, it became clear that an environment that is “encouragement to walk” is required in addition to an environment that is “easy to walk”. It is important to clarify the issues and potentials of the district, and to consider the environment improvement according to the demand for walks.
