Given the benefits of urban greenways on the health and well-being of urban
populations, the increased use of urban greenways has garnered increasing
attention. Studies on urban greenways, however, have been mostly conducted in
Western countries, whereas there is limited knowledge on greenway use in urban
areas in developing countries. To address this shortcoming, the present study
selected Wutong Greenway in Shenzhen, China, as a case study and focused on the
use pattern and factors that influence the frequency and duration of urban
greenway use in developing countries. An intercept survey of greenway users was
conducted, and 1257 valid questionnaires were obtained. Multiple logistic
regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between potential
predictors and greenway use. Results showed that visitors with a varied
sociodemographic background use Wutong Greenway with high intensity. Various
factors affect the use of urban greenways, including individual and environmental
factors and greenway use patterns. Unlike previous studies, we found that
accommodation type, length of stay at present residence and mode of
transportation to the greenway are important factors that affect greenway use. In
contrast with studies conducted in Western countries, less-educated and
low-income respondents visit the Wutong greenway even more frequently than
others. Thus, the greenway is an important public asset that promotes social
equity and that all residents can freely use. To better serve citizens, we
suggest that the greenway network should be extended to other areas and that its
environmental quality should be improved.
