  • Pedestrian Navigation Aids, Spatial Knowledge and Walkability

Spatial knowledge is important for pedestrian travel. Rich spatial knowledge contributes to a good mental image of the walking environment, which consequently increases travel confidence and potentially allows more active walking. While there are plenty of studies on walkability, little work has been done on how navigation aids influence walkability. Using a pilot wayfinding experiment, we examined the effect on users’ acquired spatial knowledge of two major pedestrian navigation aids used in London in comparison to direct experience of routes. 1. Introduction and Background Walkability has become a widely discussed topic in urban and transportation planning and gained public interest since 2005. A walkable city that provides an accessible walking environment encourages more pedestrian walking. This results in benefits to the economy, improved public health and reduced ground emissions. Existing walkability studies focus on the assessment of street pattern, land use diversity and housing density (Frank et al.

These opportunities include: the regeneration of the Riverside area, the possible redevelopment of the Post Office Sorting site and planned improvements at Twickenham Station. In addition the soon to open hotel at Regal House will no doubt impact the local economy, parking and employment.
