Taiwan is also currently confronted with the increase of population, vehicles and buildings, leading to the living environment some unfavorable elements, such as congestion, insecurity and pollution. Therefore, the government has proposed some improvement plans. One of them is Townscape Model Reconstruction Plan, which takes ecology, sustainable operation and environmental protection as the main issues. And Community Reconstruction just meets the strategy of sustainable operation most. Under the leadership of the strategies of the Central Government, different local governments immediately started a series of reconstruction movements. Unexceptionally, Kaohsiung City also joins the reconstruction work. From the large-scale infrastructure to the local projects that meet the community needs, all of them involve the improvement of the living environment. The study is based on the item Trails for Community School Students to Walk to and from School under Community Reconstruction implemented according to the policies of the Central Government.

Through the ways of literature review, on-the-spot observation, taking photographs and questionnaire survey, the study investigates the users satisfaction and acceptance of the established trails for walking to and from school, sees whether different plans meet the expected effects in times of implementation, and proposes the conclusions and suggestions.
