People are walking in cities for different reasons. Some walkers
walk for going to work, some are walking for shopping and
some are for leisure during day and night hours. Medium sized
cities like Braga and Guimar{\~a}es in Portugal are depending on car
for even shorter trips up to 2 kilometers. However, the walkways
are allowing people to walk in convenient and safe way including
late night environment.
The pedestrians feel troublesome to walk on the footpaths because
of illegal parking and discontinuation of walkways. Municipality
transport plans and master plans do not incorporate pedestrians
as a major component.
But this egress mode of transportation is very important in medium
sized city centers like Guimar{\~a}es and Braga for the people to
enjoy city centers{\textquoteright} activities.
