Description
Summary:Pedestrian connectivity is one of the most influential urban design considerations. Pedestrian walkway is one of the important design elements in planning for micro-mobility. Despite its crucial role in connecting people from one place to another, this particular element is often deemed as least important and as the last part to be included in the design stage. This has resulted in discontinuity of network and improper design that affect safety of the user. This study aims to assess pedestrian connectivity at Bukit Bintang area, which is the beating heart of Kuala Lumpur City Centre. Several approaches have been identified to ensure the success of this study and that include observation on the physical attributes of the existing pedestrian facilities, coupled with questionnaire survey targeted for users. Findings from the analysis show that a lot of improvement works need to be done with particular attention on the pavement, network and universal design.
