Public Support for Limiting Through-traffic and Reallocating Public Space in Four Residential Neighborhoods in Berlin and its Correlates: Results from the KlimaKieze Survey
Limiting through-traffic and reallocating public space in residential neighborhoods may benefit health and sustainability, yet evidence on public support for such measures is limited. We assessed support for 13 specific measures and neighborhood, mobility, sustainability and sociodemographic correlates in a survey of 1,480 adults from four residential neighborhoods in Berlin. Support was assessed with Likert-scaled items, and associations were examined using linear regression. Support was moderate to high for all measures (61–88%). It was positively associated with active mobility, connectedness to nature, and children in the household, and negatively with car use and age.
