Abstract

Recent studies show that inequalities in transport infrastructure negatively impact educational performance. This article presents a model that indicates the factors associated with the adoption of Active School Transportation (AST)for the city of São Paulo. The results of the multinomial logistic regression show how the adoption of active transportation by students is explained by parents’ active commuting, car ownership, distance, and indirect route. They also highlight the school bus distribution policy and its risks, considering the competition between school buses and active commuting modes.
