  • Walk-To-School Prioritization Analysis for the Schools of Knox County, Tennessee
    Walk-To-School Prioritization Analysis for the schools of Knox County, Tennessee Prepared for the Knox County Dept. of Engineering & Public Works by January 2014 The objective of this study is to identify the locations in Knox County having the greatest amount of potential and realized pedestrian activity associated with the walk-to-school trip type. With knowl- edge about where the greatest pedestrian demand exists, capital planners can focus efforts toward the determination of specific pedestrian infrastructure needs across the county. The Knox County school walking trip estimates were developed using RPM’s non-motorized trip modeling process. The process uses a combination of local and national data to produce walk-to- school trip estimates for all 86 public schools in Knox County. In the model, every student repre- sents one trip made to school, with the potential for this to be a walking trip increasing as the trip length decreases. The student’s home address is geo-coded as his/her origin and the student’s school is geo-coded as his/her destination. The student data was obtained from Knox County Schools for all 59,276 students in the school system using school year 2013-2014 enrollment data. With the origin and destination of all travel-to-school trips mapped, a unique trip assignment for all 59,276 trips to school was performed using current open-source mapping. This process results in the travel-to-school distance assuming that the existing street network is used to make the trip. Interstates and other ...have an average pedestrian-prohibited ...and a median Students who live within..
