An Application of The Pedestrian Lane on The Yos Sudarso Road In Mamuju City Based on The Complete Street Concept

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 3

Abstract

The incomplete roads, designed only for cars, with limited transportation options make pedestrians, cyclists, and other transport users feel uncomfortable and safe and risk dangerous. Yos Sudarso Road in Mamuju City is a road segment with several activities in various zones, the intensity of activities that occur on the road is very high at certain hours, due to the different activities of the diversity of building functions. The condition of the pedestrian lane on this road does not continue along the road and is not equipped with additional facilities that support the activities and diversity of existing functions. This study aims to identify the condition of pedestrian lanes and analyze the application of pedestrian lanes based on the complete street concept. The type of research used is non-experimental descriptive with the qualitative and quantitative approach, using survey method in the form of direct observation at research sites, interviews and questionnaires. The condition of pedestrian lanes is not suitable based on the complete street concept that does not provide a sense of security and comfort for road users, the need for pedestrian lanes are equipped with street furniture (street lights, seats, tree protector) and lanes for persons with disabilities (blind people, wheels) with a width requirement of 4meters, while the recommendation of pedestrian lane implementation based on pedestrian width requirements and addition of the pedestrian width lane that is, on the left side to the east is made continuously with width 8m and on the right side is made continuous with width 4m.
