Abstract

The Public Works and Spatial Planning (PUPR) Office of Padang, Indonesia has currently focused on the agenda of improving pedestrian paths in several areas, including Jalan Khatib Sulaiman. This study aims to evaluate the pedestrian way on Jalan Khatib Sulaiman by examining physical and non-physical aspects. Descriptive qualitative analysis methods were examined and combined by exploring inferential statistical analysis techniques with variables such as the cleanliness, completeness of facilities, etc. A perception analysis approach was carried out to evaluate the comfortability of the pedestrian path. The pedestrian corridor of Jalan Khatib Sulaiman has fulfilled the physical standard of the pedestrian space according to the Guidelines for the National Standardization Agency for Indonesia (BSN) No. 8 of 2000. As a result of this study by examined 12 variables, it showed that the pedestrian way on Jalan Khatib Sulaiman can be categorized as ‘comfort’. In terms of pedestrian way optimization, a regulatory approach is needed, such as (1) Using masks on the pedestrian way as a mandatory (2) promoting cleanliness through billboards. Improving facilities on the pedestrian path such as (3) providing a sink/hand washing area or (4) providing hand sanitizer at some points, (5) providing a canopy/protective roof on the pedestrian path, and (6) providing bus stops on the route pedestrian also expected. (7) Enhancing the Cross slope and sidewalk grades was also expected. In the new normal era, the completeness of the facility on pedestrian paths is considered “important” to do (scale 66.64%).
