The methodology implemented was mixed, collecting qualitative and quantitative data. Questionnaires were given to the residents of the area and statistically analyzed, semi-structured interviews were done with urban experts, and geographical analyses with maps were carried out, these were the main analysis methods applied. The results of the inferential analysis showed a significant relationship between connectivity and the street’s physical characteristics, with the modal choices residents made. However, when comparing the four areas of study, the location of residency marked a difference in people’s travel behavior. |
