% Pedestrian Facility Coverage
Updated Using 2023 Data
This measure identifies the share of urban non-limited access roads on the State Highway System that have pedestrian facilities on one or both sides of the road.
Methodology: % Pedestrian Facility Coverage
The pedestrian facilities include urban non-limited access State Highway System (SHS) with a sidewalk 5 feet wide or greater or a shared-use path on either side of roadway. The percentage of pedestrian facility coverage quantifies the percentage of centerline miles of tracked non-freeway facilities in urban areas (5,000+ population) that have sidewalks and/or shared-use paths available to pedestrians. In the formula below, a limited number of non-SHS roadways deemed of interest to FDOT is included.
