Karmiel, Israel experiences severe traffic congestion during commute hours. The goal of this project, sponsored by Braude College of Engineering, was to persuade high school students to walk rather than be driven to school, thereby reducing morning traffic. Using surveys, observational discoveries, and interviews, we determined socialization is the most effective motivator for students to walk. Our solution, the Walk2School application, combines opportunities for peer interaction and incentivization to encourage walking to school, potentially alleviating traffic issues in the area.
