Abstract

Walking is an important element of accessibility because it can increase the livability of a city. Peunayong as a trade and service center as well as a heritage area has very diverse activities with high intensity. The density of activities in Peunayong causes high vehicle accessibility which causes congestion in the area, parking on site which narrows the space for pedestrians and vehicles. In addition, pedestrian facilities in Peunayong still do not facilitate pedestrians because of the mixing of various activities in one lane, such as circulation, parking, and trading. In creating a pedestrian-friendly, it is necessary to plan and design good pedestrian facilities, by paying attention to the characteristics of pedestrians and their district. Walkability is one of the concepts for a walkable area. The approach in this study is by adopting the walkability theory as a reference. The focus of this research is to determine the quality of walkability in Peunayong. The method of analysis uses descriptive analysis. Those that formed walkability which will become parameters in this study are Connected, Convenient, Comfort, Convivial, Conspicuous through pedestrian paths and crossings, circulation activity, block size, spatial enclosure and humanscale, open space and vegetation, street furniture and signage.

Abstract

The term of morphology is widely used to describe the physical form of urban areas based on the historical city. The Old City of Kalianget is a modern city that was built as the salt briquette factory area during the colonial period in 1899. This study aims to identify the characteristics of urban morphology in the old city of Kalianget. The deductive qualitative method is used from the beginning of identifying the area problems, field survey and data analysis. This study uses the urban design theory by Roger Trancik. The urban design theory identifies morphology through figure ground analysis, linkage theory, and place theory. The study shows the land was dominated by the factory area in 1947 and has been dominated by the residence and abandoned buildings nowdays. Moreover, the road structure is formed with a grid pattern with the intersections between roads and dominated by T-junction. The center of the old city of Kalianget is an open space in the middle of the area characterized by the plots building. It closes to the open spaces and the main road has the larger size than the next layer.

Abstract

The Lao government has a polity to promote natural, historical, and cultural tourism by encouraging infrastructure development such as airport construction, construction of transport routes that can connect in the whole country, and connect to neighboring countries in the north, central and southern. Base on the abundance of various tourism resources that are couture-history and, many communities have the potential to develop ecotourism through community participation, impressing tourists as well as creating great economic benefits to local people. The development would be focusing on infrastructure and facility development, trekking trail restoration, development and renovation of guest houses, toilet construction, service quality improvement, and media production in advertising. Three areas had developed as community-based ecotourism (Dong Natad protected area is one of them). Kayson Phomvihane city, which is the most populous city of the province located next to the Mekong River has a friendship bridge connecting to Thailand. The city has many popular attractions, includes the cultural and historical site included Inghang stupa, dinosaur museum, old French colonial buildings, and Wat Saiyaphoum (Saiyaphoum Temple); Natural site included: Dong Natad Provincial Protected Area, Nongtao lake, and Buengva lake. This thesis aims to make a guideline for the enhancement and development of ecotourism to lead to sustainable development in the local community. Moreover, the results of this thesis will be analyzed and informed by all stakeholders on the concept for the desired strategy.

Abstract

Jambi Provincial Government tries to overcome congestion by providing public transportation, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, known as BRT Trans Siginjai Jambi. Public transportation Trans Siginjai Jambi has been operating for two years and has 11 BRT Stations. Placement of the transit node is one of the determinants of the role of bus stations in the surrounding area. The diversity of land-use and facilities close to the transit area can reduce travel time, so it is necessary to map the land-use that will determine the physical characteristics of the area around the BRT Station. This study discusses the characteristics of the area around the BRT Station using quantitative methods. Quantitative methods are used to determine the characteristics of BRT Station based on the variables of the proportion of land use in the area around the BRT Station. The land-use variable is obtained from the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) theory. The study produced three characteristics of BRT Station, namely City Station, Neighborhood Station, and Special Activity Station.

Abstract

The phenomenon of public open space activity in Patukan railroad area is a spatial problem related to the behavior of its users. Residents around Patukan railway station use the railroad crossing area as a place to gather, culinary tours and recreation while watching train activities that pass in the afternoon. Activities that occur in the area raise concerns about the security and safety of visitors who are active there considering that the majority of visitors carry out these activities on railroad tracks. PT. Indonesian Railways (KAI) Daop VI Yogyakarta as the manager of Patukan railway station has banned any activity in the area, but the regulation is still not effective enough to prevent people from gathering in that area. This study aims to identify the phenomenon of activity that occurs in the Patukan railway station area and to determine the factors that cause the setting of public open space activities in that area by using a qualitative and quantitative method based on rationalism. Based on the results of the study it is known that there are factors that cause the setting of public open space activities in the area consisting of perception, time, environmental and spatial factors that support activity actors to carry out activities there.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic affects many aspects, including transportation. Campaigns to reduce social distance have changed people's daily travel behaviors. Moreover, increased health awareness leads to increased bicycle usage, including in Jakarta. However, the lack of proper bicycle lanes along the road in Jakarta makes cyclists unsafe. Therefore, the Bicycle Level of Service method uses to evaluate the feasibility of a section of the bicycle lane in South Jakarta. As the number of cyclists in Jakarta grows, so do their characteristics. The diversity of cyclists may also reveal facility preferences. Hence, the Latent Class Analysis is carried out to determine a cyclist’s class likelihood. A sample of bicycle users in Jakarta and its surroundings was studied using descriptive quantitative analysis. Lastly, this study performed the cross-tabulation analysis to examine the relationship between cycling classes in Jakarta and the preferences on cycling facilities during the pandemic. The study results indicate that daily mobility in Jakarta changed during the pandemic, with an increase in bicycle users and the emergence of three cyclist classes: Recreational, Sport, and True. In addition, the feasibility evaluation of the existing bicycle lane shows an increase in the bicycle level of service since the time prior to the pandemic.

Abstract

While many studies on urban compactness measured built-up area (intensity), this study explored population density in forms of gradients. Also, medium and small cities (in this case, municipalities due to having autonomous economies), through inquiring their characteristics in common, could provide early insights for anticipating further growths. Density database was made, combined with cadastral data. Two kinds of urban growth pattern (i.e. concentric and linear) were comprehended to extract gradient patterns from the cities using three indices. Through assigning a time span (2010–2018), the densification rates were also derived. The results indicate that there was a transformation from linear to concentric pattern while populations increased, yet not rare to total sprawling. Besides, there were influences on the compactness states from how the cities are positioned among the others within their local clusters where, on one hand, being too close to large cities would promote sprawling in long term while, on the other hand, being surrounded evenly by other cities is likely advantageous. Nevertheless, the degree of these advantages was not prevailing fairly across the Indonesian regions. Given the complexity and multidisciplinary nature of urban form, these findings are considerable for further planning and studies.

Abstract

UHIs are one of the challenges that has arisen from urbanization in Yogyakarta. These phenomena require the development of guidelines and planning policies which can manage the local climate. This research aims to formulate the spatial planning policies solution which use the concepts of urban sustainability and sustainable cooling to reduce UHI. Qualitative analysis was conducted through the analysis of the data from interviews on the multilevel governments based on spatial planning policies and the implementation. This spatial planning solution is divided in three solutions: technical policies, strategic policies, and partnership. The technical policies offer expanded vegetation area and living lab projects. Then the strategic policies consist of the cooling action plan and the incentive-disincentive mechanism. The last solution, partnership, is offered engagement with the public and collaboration with other cities or private parties. The spatial planning policies solutions which have high chance to reduce UHI, as determined from the interviews, is from technical policies and should be implemented by expanding green areas and forming urban living labs. The governments also offer three alternative solutions i.e. expanding green area combine with smart surface strategy, establishing cooling strategic plan, and penta-helix collaboration.

Abstract

Livability is the ability of a place to provide a comfortable and healthy atmosphere for living, doing activities, or working, which is built through urban physical order, accessibility of city services, ease of mobility, an opportunity to participate, and protection of nature so that all residents have a good quality of life. In Indonesia, the city that has the best livability value is Surakarta. However, livability in this city does not seem available to all residents because the service facilities are not evenly distributed in some areas, and many people still live in slums. Therefore, this study was structured to measure the livability of the Surakarta City area using a quantitative deductive approach. The analysis technique used is geospatial data processing and scoring. As a result, the three observed areas have fairly good livability with different scores.
