“可达性”在交通规划中已经变得司空见惯，因此，对于可达性的含义、可达性的良好衡量标准以及如何在实践中应用，存在着过多的解释。本文概述了测量可达性的方法，并介绍了英国可达性规划的一个案例研究-一种形式化可达性概念的方法。讨论了与地方当局官员进行的半结构化访谈的结果，以确定当前的方法是否能够实现其预期的结果。这种方法表明，在测量或建模的可访问性与个人的感知之间可能存在差距。研究结果表明，虽然这一过程被认为有助于提高可达性问题的形象，但可达性的措施不一定容易转化为从业人员认为的改善可达性和减少交通劣势的改进的量化效益。(C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
"Accessibility" has become commonplace in transport planning and as such there is a plethora of interpretations of what accessibility means, what constitutes a good measure of accessibility, and how this might be applied in practice. This paper presents an overview of approaches to measuring accessibility and presents a case study of Accessibility Planning in England - one approach to formalising the concept of accessibility. Results of semi-structured interviews with local authority officers are discussed to establish whether current approaches, allow their desired outcomes to be met. This approach demonstrates where there might be gaps between measured or modelled accessibility and the perceptions of the individuals. Findings suggest that while the process is deemed useful in raising the profile of accessibility issues, measures of accessibility do not necessarily easily translate into quantifying benefits of those improvements that are perceived by practitioners to improve accessibility and reduce transport disadvantage.
