This report presents a Walkability Strategy for a proposed Bus Rapid Transit Line in Dhaka and outlines policy and infrastructure recommendations aimed at creating an environment in which walking is appealing, safe, and convenient. The BRT Walkability Strategy can be used as a model for other neighbourhoods in Dhaka, as well as for other cities throughout Bangladesh, to assist decision-makers as they strive to create safer and more convenient pedestrian-friendly transportation options.
