Waterfront accessibility is one of the major planning aspects of cities. However, tackling this issue from the Human Well-Being (HWB) perspective is relatively new. Alexandria is one of the leading Mediterranean cities that was planned, shaped, and configured as based on its direct linkage to the waterfront. Nowadays, city extensions make many of its newly developed zones detached from the waterfront. This paper investigates the correlations between waterfront accessibility and HWB in Alexandria. It uses an analytical approach -based on statistical investigations- to compare HWB in two zones based on their proximity to the waterfront. The results show that detailed configuration of street pattern and travel duration are the most influencing attributes on waterfront accessibility. Consequently, these attributes have a higher impact on residents’ satisfaction or negative affect, and therefore their HWB than other attributes. The paper concludes with guidelines to policymakers, urban planners, and researchers’ contributions to waterfront accessibility.

滨水无障碍属性对人类福祉的影响:亚历山大省的案例研究

滨水区的可及性是城市的主要规划内容之一。但是,从人类福祉(HWB)角度解决此问题相对较新。亚历山大市是地中海地区领先的城市之一,根据其与滨水区的直接联系进行规划,定型和配置。如今,城市扩展使它的许多新开发区脱离了滨水区。本文调查了亚历山大港的海滨可及性与HWB之间的相关性。它使用一种基于统计调查的分析方法,根据两个区域与海滨的距离来比较HWB。结果表明,街道模式和行进时间的详细配置是影响海滨可及性的最大因素。所以,这些属性对居民的满意度或负面影响的影响更大,因此,他们的HWB高于其他属性。本文以政策制定者,城市规划者和研究人员对海滨可及性的贡献为指导。
