A Study on Pedestrian Streetscape as a Public Right ~ Case: Jl. PB. Sudirman, Denpasar City, Bali

Poor facilities for pedestrians in the streets could adversely affect humans and the environment. The adverse effects include: accidents to pedestrians by motorists; A growing number of motor vehicles, so that traffic jams occur more frequently; The higher the level of air pollution; More and more citizens are diseased related to the respiratory system; And diseases that attack the respiratory system and lungs would also attack the nervous system and the brain; Community would diminishing their power of thought and intelligence, so that our human resources we would be getting worse. Efforts to reduce people's reliance on private vehicles is the provision of good public transport system, in quality and quantity. The public transit system cannot stand alone. Any sophisticated public transport system if there is not good pedestrian facilities, the comfort and safety of the traveling public transit users cannot be considered adequate. Need connectivity between modes of transport, in the form of pedestrian lane. Report of the World Health Organization (WHO), entitled 'Global Status Report on Road Safety 2013’ states that in the world, every day, an average of 747 pedestrians are killed in road accidents. Not only pedestrians, those are also categorized as accident prone ones are pedal cyclists. WHO’s data figures, worldwide, approximately 169 pedal cyclists are killed in road accidents every day. Indonesia has a law that protect pedestrians and pedal cyclists. After Law No. 22 year 2009 on LLAJ published in 2009, Indonesia has a derivatives rule. Government Regulation (PP) No. 79 year 2013 on Traffic Network and Road Transportation. Mentioned in the Government Regulation that the road must be equipped with facilities for bicycles, pedestrians and the difabled. For bicycle lanes on the road are separated physically and/or by markings. Bicycle lanes must meet security requirements. Lane for pedal cyclists can also be used together with pedestrians. The facility must include at least all the traffic signs that were given signage for the difabled. Pedestrian facilities: First, an avowed crossings with road markings, signage and paraphernalia of the signal traffic; Second, the sidewalk. Sidewalk amenities should be provided on roads around the center of activity; Third, pedestrian bridges; and fourth, tunnel crossings. In the Minister of Public Works Rule No. 03/Prt/M/ 2014 on Guidelines for Planning, Provision and Use of Walking Infrastructure Network in Urban Area, contained the principles and provisions of the planning, provision and use of infrastructure network of pedestrians facilities, as well as service standards of pedestrian paths. Besides to pedestrian safety, the urgency of pedestrian network provision that is integrated with the mass public transport system is the aspect of public health and the environment protection. The uncontrolled development of traffic conditions on urban streets in Indonesia, including in Bali more alarming. Without realizing it, this kind of development also undermine the economic aspects as well as the resilience of the country, because it can lead to decreasing the quality of human resources by diseases caused by air pollution. This study is an attempt to invite the parties, stakeholders and shareholders to aware the issues of Pedestrian Streetscape: to understand the problems, to learn the universal standards, generic national requirements contained in laws, government regulations, and ministerial decree on Guidelines for Planning, Provision and Use of Pedestrians Infrastructure Network. Also, to suite specific local rules in local government implementation method as well as social cultural and technical requirements.

Analysis of Pedestrian Services in Metropolitan Cities: Case of Jakarta Business Area

One of the characteristics of an excellent urban environment is a friendly environment for pedestrians. Pedestrian facilities that meet the standards are required in the central business district, where most activities are walking. In recent years, Jakarta, as a business city, has continued to improve its pedestrian facilities. Of course, these improvements must be examined whether they are following the community's needs or viceversa. This paper aims to find out about the level of comfort and level of service at the new pedestrian facilities in the Metropolitan City of Jakarta. The research method was carried out through a survey and a questionnaire. Data was collected in the Mega Kuningan Business District with repaired pedestrians. The number of respondents was 100 people. The analysis carried out is Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) and Level of Service (LoS) analysis. The results of this study indicate that the newly built pedestrian has met level A. Based on the analysis of interest, it is still necessary to increase security. Meanwhile, based on the comfort analysis, additional lighting and shade are required. This study shows that pedestrians' improvement in the business district in the Metropolitan City of Jakarta is good and needs to be developed in other locations.

Spatial Analysis in Determining Physical Factors of Pedestrian Space Livability, Case Study: Pedestrian Space on Jalan Kemasan, Yogyakarta

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018

The existence of street as a place to perform various human activities becomes an important issue nowadays. In the last few decades, cars and motorcycles dominate streets in various cities in the world. On the other hand, human activity on the street is the determinant of the city livability. Previous research has pointed out that if there is lots of human activity in the street, then the city will be interesting. Otherwise, if the street has no activity, then the city will be boring. Learning from that statement, now various cities in the world are developing the concept of livable streets. Livable streets shown by diversity of human activities conducted in the streets' pedestrian space. In Yogyakarta, one of the streets shown diversity of human activities is Jalan Kemasan. This study attempts to determine the physical factors of pedestrian space affecting the livability in Jalan Kemasan Yogyakarta through spatial analysis. Spatial analysis was performed by overlay technique between liveable point (activity diversity) distribution map and variable distribution map. Those physical pedestrian space research variable included element of shading, street vendors, building setback, seat location, divider between street and pedestrian way, and mixed use building function. More diverse the activity of one variable, then those variable are more affected then others. Overlay result then strengthened by field observation to qualitatively ensure the deduction. In the end, this research will provide valuable input for street and pedestrian space planning that is comfortable for human activities.

Pedestrian Path Infrastructure in Urban Public Green Open Space (Case Study: Green Open Space Religious Monument Kendari City, Indonesia

Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2023

Pedestrian paths in city parks are public spaces that always attract city residents to visit. The presence of this city park must heed efforts to arrange pedestrian paths that support the walkability of visitors, considering that generally, city parks are located in the city center and with an unlimited age range of visitors. The current paper highlights the evaluation of the performance and satisfaction of pedestrian path users in public green spaces using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) analysis tool and the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) analysis tool, followed by conducting a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to obtain optimal models and strategies for pedestrian paths. The results help identifying the performance of pedestrian paths and indicate the CSI of pedestrian path users. The comfort of pedestrians on public open space roads needs to be improved. In terms of security, the height of the pedestrian path must be distinguished from the vehicle lane. This study reveals that the performance of existing pedestrian paths classified as good category are facilities for pedestrians with special needs (guiding block), road markings, crossing lanes, security systems (CCTV, security posts), speed control, and cleanliness. Those classified as adequate category are pedestrian path dimensions, lighting, the difference in the height of the pedestrian path with the road body, pedestrian markings and signs/signals, the surface texture of materials, seating, climate (shade), shelter, vegetation/shade plants, the number and quality of rubbish bins. Those with poor category are the availability of ramps, pedestrian paths connected to urban transportation elements, continuity of pedestrian paths, barriers on pedestrian paths, crossings, and noise reduction facilities. In addition, the user satisfaction index is fairly satisfying (65.57%).

Arrangement of Pedestrian Paths Based on Walkability Aspects in Jakarta Kota Tua Area

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL ON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND INFORMATION SYSTEM (IJATEIS)

Jakarta Kota Tua's (old town) Area is a historical area that located in Capital City of Indonesia, namely Jakarta which continues to degrade in both physical and nonphysical ways, resulting in an unfavorable image and an unappealing location, one of which is the lack of pedestrian facilities in the Kota Tua area, not to mention the fact that during the holidays, pedestrians are jammed with street vendors, making it impossible for pedestrians to walk in the area around the Old Town Area. Furthermore, there are still neglected facilities such as trash cans and bus stations where passengers can wait for buses that are not fit for their intended purpose. This research aims to find out the walkibility based on existing condition in the Jakarta Kota Tua area. The analytical method that uses in this research is descriptive analysis based on pedestrian path characteristic walkability index analysis. According to the calculation results, 1st zone is included in the waiting to walk catego...

The Existence of Pedestrian in Jakarta

Journal of Architectural Research and Education

Pedestrian is part of urban elements that have a significant role in forming a city. In the pedestrian, social interactions will be created which further strengthen relations between elements in the city. Cities in Europe are the best examples of city pedestrian planning. There walking is more comfortable and enjoyable, with the city being created by the streetscape and the humanist city order. Whereas in cities in developing countries like Jakarta, the city planning has not accommodated pedestrians at all. The design of the city of Jakarta which is not humanist seems to urge pedestrians and force everyone to ride a car. The pedestrian paths provided are always side by side with the road and the volume is insufficient for those who pass it. It can be concluded that the existing pedestrian conditions are unsafe and very uncomfortable. Examples of such cases can be seen along Jalan Sudirman and M.H. Thamrin which has always been the icon of the Jakarta offi...

Role and Utilization of Public Space in Social Context A Case Study Of Footpath In Bangkok

2nd Annual International Conference on Architecture and Civil Engineering (ACE 2014), 2014

Footpath is the most common type of public space of the city that connects points of origin and destination. The role and utilization of footpath however are diverse. It reflects the complexity of the social comprehension of the citizens towards the publicness of city's public facilities. This research aims to determine the role and utilization of footpath as one type of city's public space by examining behavioral response of footpath users and to improve the pedestrian condition on footpath in Victory Monument, Bangkok. This research was an empirical examination of behavioral responses and perceptions of people to the role and utilization of footpath in Victory Monument. It used methods involving pedestrian counts to examine the walking performance of the pedestrians, the behavioral observation to study the social characteristic of footpath activities, and in-depth interview with group of footpath users. The result of the studies shows that the physical setting of the footpath in the study area is efficient to accommodate the walking pedestrians. The change in footpath utilization during evening hours however significantly reduced the efficiency of footpath for walking. The increase of pedestrian unit flow rates and the sustained and stationary activities on footpath in the evening reduce the walking space per pedestrians. The optional walking route at the Skywalk footpath becomes the main access with the largest amount of pedestrian flow while the footpath utilization changes at Phayathai Island footpath below. It proves that the pedestrians prefer to access without alternative activities on intermodal site footpath. The social interaction among footpath users is minimal regardless of vibrant activities on footpath. However, the number of events for the individual pedestrians performing sustained and stationary activities such as window shopping and waiting is a significant factor in the predominant change of footpath's role and utilization. The rebalancing of role and utilization of footpath that prioritized pedestrian and social interaction requires the shift from generalized legal definition of footpath to specific control, authority, users and scope of publicness. The participatory process from all groups of user is required in redefining the role of footpath space. The activities and utilization of footpath space should be rebalanced to prioritize the pedestrians. Policy maker should initiate a functional legislation act on the use public space especially footpath that benefits pedestrians of the metropolitan city.

WALKABILITY AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES IN THREE INDONESIAN CITIES: PADANG, YOGYAKARTA AND MATARAM Lana Winayanti Senior Expert to the Minister

The success of the urban population highly depends on the infrastructure to support the mobility of its citizens. For more than half a century, most countries have experienced increased use of motor vehicles that often leads to urban sprawling and inefficient infrastructure. Walking is considered to be the cheapest and most accessible transportation mode in particular for the poor population. This research aims to provide information on the current pedestrian infrastructure in selected cities (other than Jakarta) in Indonesia so that it can be used to develop and propose pedestrian-focused solutions for Indonesian cities. The research cities are Padang, Yogyakarta and Mataram. These cities represent the western, central and eastern region of Indonesia. The methodology of this research is based on the ADB Study on 'Walkability and Pedestrian Facilities in Asian Cities'. The survey results show that in general pedestrian infrastructure and supporting facilities are still inadequate.
