Chapter five presents the discussion section, which highlights and analyses the key findings from this research project and puts my findings and research hypotheses into context with findings from the extensive literature review. In this chapter I will discuss how the changes to the built environment along the corridor improved the walkability and age-friendliness of the area through traffic-calming measures and improving the attractiveness of Comox Street.
