The research team composed of members from two Arizona cities, have undertaken this study as an extracurricular study.
The research team acknowledges the importance of equity as a measure of success for public and active transportation programs, which include some of the most vulnerable roadway users, such as pedestrians and bike or scooter share users. Based on research conducted in 2017, 2018 and 2021 we have concluded that not all transportations/mobility agencies have a specific performance measurement addressing and quantifying equity.
With your help, the research team wants to determine some of the reasons for this, as well as determine if a performance measure exclusively for equity is needed. Additionally we want to understand what you think this measure should evaluate and whether it is of practical value. For these reasons, we have created this survey.
For purposes of this survey we are using AT = Active Transportation mobility programs/projects and ATV = Active Transportation Vehicles.
The results are anonymous, but the respondents can let us know if we can contact them for follow-up.
This is an 8-question survey and will only take 5 minutes to complete. thank you in advance for your time.
