This thesis adds to our understanding of the importance of environment on people’s experience of walking and active travel
In his thesis Exploring Perceptions of Route Environments in Relation to Walking, Dan Andersson has investigated how different environmental variables, for example greenery, noise and beauty, are perceived by those who commute on foot in Greater Stockholm. We asked landscape historian Sarah Spooner for a review, and her assessment of Andersson’s efforts concludes with the observation that it’s an important piece of research that deserves to be read widely amongst both academics and professionals working in planning, transportation and public health.
Disputation | Exploring Perceptions of Route Environments in Relation to Walking | Dan Andersson, GIH, fredagen den 22 mars 2024
I avhandlingen har Dan Andersson undersökt hur olika miljövariabler, till exempel grönska, buller och skönhet, uppfattas av de som arbetspendlar till fots i Stor-Stockholm. Dessa upplevelser har i sin tur analyserats i relation till om färdvägarna värderas som hindrande eller stimulerande för gång, respektive otrygga eller trygga i relation till trafiken.
