WALKABILITY

Page 4: Urban study

Walkability

● Measure how friendly an area is to walking● Has health, environmental, and economic benefits● Importance in sustainable urban design● Factors of walkability

○ Pedestrian walkway & Overpass○ Traffic and road condition○ Safety○ Land use patterns

The best way to experience a city is throughWALKING

CONNECTIVITY

Page 10: Urban study

Connectivity / Road system

● Hierarchy road system○ Hierarchy - arrangement, big to small

○ Primary (highest number of lanes), Secondary, Tertiary (smallest number of lanes), service road

Page 11: Urban study

TRANSPORT

Page 13: Urban study

Transport

● Move people from one place to another● Issues = Overflow of personal vehicles

○ Traffic jams○ Insufficient parking lot○ Threat for pedestrians

● Solution = Public Transport○ KTM○ LRT○ Monorail○ Bus○ Taxi

● Sustainable and Healthy Solution○ Create walkable city○ Bicycles

WAYFINDING

Page 18: Urban study

Wayfinding

● Guide people through the space○ Signage - Clearly indicate the direction○ Landmarks - As a reference point, something outstanding in the area, e.g Main Place○ E.g shopping malls, school, city, etc

● Important especially in emergency situation, such as in Hospital● Contribute sense of well-being, safety and security

LAND USE / DIVERSITY

Page 26: Urban study

● Go to state JUPEM e.g Pulau Pinang for our site

● Buy the map for RM 10.00 ● Requires lot number, address or

landmark of the area

Land Use/Diversity

● Different category of land usage● Jabatan Ukur dan Pemetaan

Malaysia (JUPEM)● E.g of land usage

○ Residential○ Commercial○ Educational○ Industrial○ Institutional○ Etc

Page 27: Urban study

Land Usage / Diversity

● Affects the flow of people, economy of business● Example;

○ Industrial area will be full of factory workers○ Commercial area will be less people at night since all shops closed at 10pm○ Tourism area will always full of tourist especially on school holiday season○ Residential area will be more peaceful compares to commercial area

● Affects density

Page 28: Urban study

DENSITY

Page 29: Urban study

Density

● Variety of measurement○ Residential density - the number of dwelling/housing units in an area○ Population density - the number of human persons in an area○ Employment density - the number of jobs in any given area

● Influenced by the type of buildings and activities in the area

PUBLIC SPACE

Page 33: Urban study

Public Space

● Open spaces that is accessible by public● From a grand plaza to a green pocket in a neighbourhood● Increase quality of life - social aspects● Focal points or landmark, easy wayfinding● E.g Recreational parks, plaza

SUSTAINABILITY

Page 40: Urban study

● Less vehicle, More Walking and Cycling○ Reduce air and noise pollution

● More Green, less Grey○ Vegetation○ Supply fresh oxygen○ Filter polluted air

● Provide healthy lifestyle● Zero-carbon city

○ Renewable source○ No carbon emission from vehicles

● Permeable city○ Water can go through into the soil○ Reduce chances of flooding
