BACKGROUND
Urban trails are a useful resource to promote physical activity. This study identified features of urban trails that correlated with trail use.
METHODS
Multiuse urban trails were selected in Chicago, Dallas, and Los Angeles. An audit of each trail was completed using the Systematic Pedestrian and Cyclist Environmental Scan for Trails instrument, identifying built environmental features. A self-report of trail use was obtained from trailside residents (N = 331) living within 1 mile of each trail. Univariate and multivariate Poisson regressions controlled for trail time from home and motivation for physical activity.
RESULTS
Positive associations with the past month's hours on the trail were observed for the presence of distance signs, vegetation height, vegetation maintenance, and trail crowding, and a negative association was observed for the presence of crossings on the trail. Positive associations with dichotomous trail use were observed for the presence of distance signs, vegetation height, and vegetation maintenance, and a negative association was observed for the presence of crossings on the trail.
CONCLUSIONS
These correlates should be confirmed in other studies and, if supported, should be considered in the promotion and design of urban trails.
背景
城市步道是促进身体活动的有用资源。本研究确定了与步道使用相关的城市步道特征。
方法
在芝加哥、达拉斯和洛杉矶选择了多用途城市步道。使用步道系统行人与自行车环境扫描评估工具对每条步道进行了审核，确定了建筑环境特征。从居住在每条步道 1 英里范围内的步道旁居民（N=331）处获得了步道使用情况的自我报告。单变量和多变量泊松回归控制了从家到步道的时间和身体活动的动机。
结果
过去一个月在步道上的时间与距离标志的存在、植被高度、植被维护和步道拥挤呈正相关，与步道上的交叉口的存在呈负相关。与步道使用呈二项分布的正相关的特征包括距离标志的存在、植被高度和植被维护，与步道上的交叉口的存在呈负相关。
结论
这些相关性应在其他研究中得到证实，如果得到证实，应在城市步道的推广和设计中加以考虑。
