The objective of this study is to examine road users’ preference for treeallocation for different configurations of urban arterials. A survey wasconducted with the assistance of computer animation to simulate visions of roadusers. Preferences of both drivers and pedestrians were investigated. Methods ofRegression Analysis, Cluster Analysis, and Multidimensional Scaling were usedto analyze surveyed data. The results showed that drivers’ preference wasaffected by aesthetics of street, the number of tree allocation, trees planted onleft-side of sidewalk and the shortest distance to trees. As for pedestrians, theircognition features were safety, tree planted on division strip and sidewalk, treeplanted on left-side of sidewalk, and comfortability. The results also showed thatboth of drivers’ and pedestrians’ preferences were not affected by divided type ofurban arterials. This study provided important information on designing urbanarterial streets. It also presented a new approach for preference survey and dataanalysis in the field of trans |
