To measure the proximity of the road segment to locally oriented Business Land Use Zones which increases the social capital of the local population.
People experience places at a fine-grained scale. The design of places can shape demand for movement – where an area is more permeable for people who walk and cycle than vehicles, getting around on foot or by bike becomes the natural choice for short trips. Clusters of local shops, schools, stations and stops provide an efficient trip chain for daily visits from home to work and back.
This indicator will support practitioners to understand whether populations are able to access a mix of uses within a reasonable distance by walking and driving. Based on the outcome of the assessment, practitioners can determine whether a road falls within the appropriate urban or rural buffer for accessibility.
Practitioners can use the mix of uses metric to measure the status of road segments adjacent to business zones.
