AbstractThe relationship between structure of configured urban space in a city and human behaviour and health has long been established. However, few studies have empirically examined the impacts of detailed built environment (BE) configuration upon health outcomes. The study hypothesizes that the configuration of the city, especially the distribution of land uses and design of street networks defines physical connectivity and accessibility to health-promoting-community-resources, influences individual's activity patterns, mental and behavioural responses as well as social interactions and hence determines the socio-spatial distribution of health1,2. With the objective of ...
