可达性是大都市地区的一个重要特征,往往反映在交通和土地使用规划目标中。但是,尽管有大量关于无障碍概念的文献,但这一概念很少被转化为评估政策的业绩衡量标准。本文件试图弥合学术文献与这些措施的实际应用之间的差距,并为制定无障碍措施提供一个框架。规划者必须解决的问题,在制定一个无障碍措施进行了概述,并提出了两个案例研究建议的范围内可能的方法。
Accessibility is an important characteristic of metropolitan areas and is often reflected in transportation and land-use planning goals. But the concept of accessibility has rarely been translated into performance measures by which policies are evaluated, despite a substantial literature on the concept. This paper is an attempt to bridge the gap between the academic literature and the practical application of such measures and provide a framework for the development of accessibility measures. Issues that planners must address in developing an accessibility measure are outlined, and two case studies suggestive of the range of possible approaches are presented.
