Abstract
The on-going urban development requires massive expansion in transportation infrastructure. Transportation sector is single-handedly responsible for a quarter of CO2 emission worldwide. Therefore it is very clear that to reduce the emission one of the important methods is to promote the use of non-motorized transportation modes. Walking is the very basic form of this zero carbon urban mobility yet often receives less attention in urban development. On previous studies, authors identified key-elements of Pedestrian Profile, Pedestrian Activity, and Pedestrian Environment which are being introduced by authors as its abbreviation, PL.AC.E. Furthermore each key-element will be defined by its common key-attributes. By contextually utilizing the framework of PL.AC.E., authors suggested that an urban area could be evaluated for its existing performances and/or be improved based on its potentials to become a walk-able area. Authors designed a comprehensive questionnaire based on the framework as the tool for data collection and then analyzed it using statistical procedures. Also on a previous study, authors already utilized this evaluation method for a case study in Kitakyushu, Japan. However the questionnaire was designed to target different kind of respondents and areas so then the result could be representing different scenarios for the validation process. Therefore on this study authors utilized the evaluation method with the case study of the city of Bandar Lampung in Indonesia. The questionnaire was distributed to 189 respondents directly and via online form. The results was then analyzed and compared with the results from the previous case study. Authors concluded that the framework was able to identify the propensity of each key-attribute in order to understand the characteristic of each key-attribute. The framework was also be able to elaborate the relationship between the key-attributes within each key-element in order to find unique phenomena in the case study area.
