This concern encompasses virtually every aspect of the pedestrian experience. Walk ability takes into account the quality of pedestrian facilities, roadway conditions, land use patterns, community support, security, and comfort for walking (Litman). Each of these facets of the pedestrian environment impacts the use of walking as a primary mode of transport. The complexity of the urban pedestrian environment naturally lends itself to micro-level analysis to locate the need for improvements; however, to gain an overview of a city, it is necessary to develop macro-level indicators that can identify the general state of the pedestrian environment. While these indicators cannot diagnose all walk ability problems, they can give a sense of how one urban area compares to another in similar circumstances and they have the potential for becoming an influential aspect of World Bank urban infrastructure diagnosis. Urban Transport indicators are being reviewed as one component of the current Transport Results Initiative which is led by the World Bank's central Transport Unit.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESSIBILITYACCIDENT RATEAIRAIR POLLUTANTSAIR QUALITYAUTOMOBILEAUTOMOBILE OWNERSAUTOMOBILE USEBLIND PERSONBUSBUS STOPSBUSWAYSCARSCONGESTIONCRASH TYPESCROSSINGCROSSINGSCROSSWALKSCURBSCYCLISTDISABILITIESDRAINAGEDRIVER SAFETYDRIVERSEFFICIENT TRAVELENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTSEUROPEAN ROADFATAL ACCIDENTSFATALITYFATALITY DATAFATALITY RATESFOOT TRAFFICFOOTBRIDGESFOOTWAYSFOSSIL FUELSGOOD TRANSPORTGRADIENTSHIGHWAYHIGHWAY ADMINISTRATIONHIGHWAYSINCOMEINFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTSINJURIESINJURYINJURY PREVENTIONINTERSECTIONSJOURNEYJOURNEY TO WORKJOURNEYSLAND USELAND USE PATTERNSLEGAL PROVISIONLOCAL AUTHORITIESLOCAL STREETSLOW INCOMESLOWER INCOME HOUSEHOLDSMANHOLE COVERSMASS TRANSITMASS TRANSIT SYSTEMSMEDICAL SERVICEMEDICAL SERVICESMOBILITYMODAL CHOICEMODAL SHAREMODAL SPLITMODE OF TRANSPORTMODES OF TRANSPORTMOTOR TRAFFICMOTOR VEHICLESMOTORISTMOTORIST BEHAVIORMOTORISTSMOTORIZED TRANSPORTMUNICIPALITIESNATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATIONNATIONAL ROAD TRAFFICNATIONAL TRAVEL SURVEYNEIGHBORHOODSNMTPAVEMENTSPEDESTRIANPEDESTRIAN ACCESSPEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTSPEDESTRIAN ACTIVITYPEDESTRIAN BRIDGESPEDESTRIAN CONDITIONSPEDESTRIAN CRASHESPEDESTRIAN DEATHSPEDESTRIAN ENVIRONMENTPEDESTRIAN ENVIRONMENTSPEDESTRIAN EXPERIENCEPEDESTRIAN FACILITIESPEDESTRIAN FACILITYPEDESTRIAN FATALITIESPEDESTRIAN GROUPPEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTUREPEDESTRIAN INJURYPEDESTRIAN JOURNEYSPEDESTRIAN MOVEMENTPEDESTRIAN NEEDSPEDESTRIAN NETWORKPEDESTRIAN PROJECTSPEDESTRIAN ROUTESPEDESTRIAN SAFETYPEDESTRIAN SECURITYPEDESTRIAN SPACEPEDESTRIAN TRAFFICPEDESTRIANIZATIONPEDESTRIANSPEOPLE WITH DISABILITIESPEOPLE WITH DISABILITYPOLICEPOLICE RECORDSPOLLUTIONPRIVATE AUTOMOBILEPRIVATE AUTOMOBILESPRIVATE TRANSPORTPUBLIC PERCEPTIONPUBLIC TRANSITPUBLIC TRANSPORTPUBLIC TRANSPORT PASSENGERSPUBLIC TRANSPORT SERVICESQUALITY OF PEDESTRIANRAPID TRANSITRAPID TRANSIT PROJECTRIDERSRIDERSHIPRIGHT-OF-WAYRIGHTS OF WAYRING ROADSROADROAD ACCIDENTSROAD CASUALTIESROAD HIERARCHYROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD MAINTENANCEROAD REHABILITATIONROAD SAFETYROAD SPACEROAD TRAFFICROADWAYROUTESROUTINE MAINTENANCERURAL INFRASTRUCTURESAFETY IMPROVEMENTSSAFETY OF PEDESTRIANSSAFETY PROGRAMSSAFETY SECURITYSAFETY STREETSHARINGSHORT TRIPSSIDEWALK CAFESSIDEWALKSSIGNSSTREET LIGHTINGSTREETSSUBSIDIARYSURVEYINGSUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTTRAFFICTRAFFIC ACCIDENTTRAFFIC ACCIDENTSTRAFFIC CALMINGTRAFFIC CALMING MEASURESTRAFFIC CASUALTIESTRAFFIC FATALITIESTRAFFIC LAWSTRAFFIC MANAGEMENTTRAFFIC SAFETYTRANSITTRANSIT RIDERSHIPTRANSIT SERVICETRANSIT SYSTEMTRANSIT SYSTEMSTRANSIT TRIPTRANSIT TRIPSTRANSPORTTRANSPORT INDICATORSTRANSPORT MODETRANSPORT MODESTRANSPORT NETWORKSTRANSPORT OFFICIALSTRANSPORT PLANNERSTRANSPORT POLICYTRANSPORT POLICY INSTITUTETRANSPORT PROJECTSTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORT SERVICESTRANSPORT SYSTEMTRANSPORT SYSTEMSTRANSPORTATIONTRANSPORTATION PROJECTSTRAVEL TIMETRAVEL TIMESTRAVELERSTRIP TIMETRUST FUNDURBAN INFRASTRUCTUREURBAN PROJECTSURBAN SERVICESURBAN STREETURBAN STREETSURBAN TRAFFICURBAN TRANSPORTURBAN TRANSPORT INDICATORSURBAN TRANSPORT MODESURBAN TRANSPORT PROJECTURBAN TRANSPORT PROJECTSURBAN TRANSPORT SYSTEMURBAN TRIPSURBANIZATIONVEHICLEVEHICLE CRASHESVEHICLE OCCUPANTSVEHICLE OPERATORSVEHICLE SPEEDSVEHICLESVULNERABLE ROAD USERSWALKERSWALKINGWALKING ACTIVITYWALKING DISTANCEWALKING ENVIRONMENTWALKING ENVIRONMENTSWALKING IMPROVEMENTSWALKING PATHSWALKING TIMEWALKING TRIPWALKING TRIPSWORK JOURNEYS10.1596/17421
