	13	+The Indicator can be defined as the number of new physical connections between urban centres and/or activities. This Indicator will be equal to 0 in the Baseline Scenario and will be assessed in the Design Scenarios (e.g., NBS Scenario or Hybrid Scenario) computing the number of new links created by the project.

15		-Increase in pedestrian and bicycle traffic is regarded beneficial for its economic, environmental, health and life quality effects. Availability of pedestrian paths and bicycle lanes can decrease the dependency on automobile ownership and use and related costs, free space from automobile traffic and congestion, reduce air pollution, increase physical activity and related health benefits and improve social activity and interaction within communities.
	15	+NBS or Hybrid solutions should enhance the connectivity between rural areas and urban centres, train stations and outdoor activities. The number of new links can be adopted as an Indicator of the benefits provided by NBS and Hybrid scenarios. The higher the number of new links created by the project, the more effective will be the benefits in terms of accessibility and therefore of quality of life for the community.

43		-* The proportion of road network dedicated to pedestrians and/or bicyclists is calculated as the total pedestrian/bicycle path length measured as a percentage of the total road network in the whole urban community in question. The pedestrian/bicycle paths are roads or lanes designated and marked for use by pedestrians and/or bicycles. The calculation can be performed from a map with adequate markings of path types and lengths, from which pedestrian/bicycle paths are summed. Pedestrian paths and bicycle routes can be considered together or separately, depending on the specific metric desired.
