2 9751/02/2018/Preliminary Examinations Section A Theme 4: Geographical Investigation 1 A student undertook an individual fieldwork exercise along part of the Park Connector Network (PCN) to assess the walkability of different paths (see Resource 1A). The PCN is made up of linear open spaces which serve as pathways linking major parks, nature reserves and green spaces within the urban area. Walkability is an element of liveability. Walkability is the extent to which the environment is conducive to walking for recreation and personal travel. It includes considerations of comfort, air quality lighting and safety, provision of amenities such as shelters, the path’s accessibility for all users and its connectivity to other walking routes. The student surveyed 30 sections of park connectors in the area investigated, totalling approximately 16km in length. She surveyed the sections on weekdays between 10:00 and 12:00hrs and between 14:00 and 16:00hrs over a 4-day period, avoiding one day when it rained heavily for most of the day. A stratified random sample of sections from each of the following types of path was taken. • Paths adjacent to canals • Paths adjacent to roads. • Paths adjacent to elevated train tracks. • Paths within parks. Equipment used: • large scale map of the area investigated • printed recording sheets and pen • iPad For
