By gaining an understanding of peoples perceived safety one can make improvements to infrastructure and take other measures to make people feel more secure on their travel routes, an increased perceived safety would in turn encourage active traveling to and from school. Benefits with active traveling for children are numerous including health, academic performance and social relationships. To understand what parents and children perceive as safe it is beneficial to ask them directly to gain an understanding of their perceptions. Therefore, this study collects information from the environment, guardians, children and staff at the school and municipality to gain a wide and nuanced understanding of the challenges facing school travel regarding Sallerupskolan. This information aims to gain a better understanding in how the perceived security can be improved to in turn increase traveling by foot, bike and buss. The study has showed that parents and children are concerned about traffic regarding their safety, booth in its speed, volume and its structure. The different methods used in this study have been compared to see their strengths and weaknesses with this type of work and to find that type of information. The work ends with a list of recommendations based on the case study to improve the safety on school travel and in the municipality more generally. (Less)
