One of the objectives of quality of pedestrian spaces improvement is to encourage
walking in the way to become a natural part of everyday patterns in urban activity.
This would also have implications on the reduction of public health issues since
the majority of urban population has become sedentary. The stated objectives and
relationships were analysed through the interpretation of the results obtained in
the direct survey of citizens in the central part of the City of Belgrade. Citizens
were asked to assess the quality of the pedestrian environment of the research
territory by using a specific questionnaire designed on the basis of the professional
tool for the evaluation of the quality of pedestrian spaces. The results have shown
that citizens of Belgrade still consider walking mainly as a recreational activity,
but that they would walk more if the quality of pedestrian environment were
improved.
