Greenways and trail use
Abstract
This thesis examines the use of three urban greenway trails in the southeastern U.S. to evaluate characteristics of greenway trails that may be associated with higher levels of trail use, especially among women. Some of the neighborhood characteristics associated with greater use such as connectivity, mixed land use and high population density are looked at in relationship to the use of greenway trails among women and users in general. The findings from these cases found that population density along with connectivity and mixed land use appear to have little to no relationship with use; women are using these trails more than men and overall use can still be higher even when all factors are not present.
