Summary: | Liveability is well-correlated to a country's economic growth. Rapid population growth causes an increase in dependence on private cars which discourages physical activity and social interactions, resulting in disconnecting and social isolation. However, Singapore has expanded the parks and park connector network (PCN) to accentuate our city's ecological connectivity and resilience in recent years. Doing so improves liveability, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and helps to cope with the stress of a fast-paced life. This study aims to identify and establish a framework to model the effects of normalising cycling using the establishment of PCN as commuting choice. This is done using two approaches: data analysis to garner insights and corroborate user feedbacks. Therefore, a framework can be established to enhance the overall experience for users. |
