Planning of a pedestrian-oriented physical environment is getting more popularized because of uprising sustainable development planning tools such as New Urbanism, Urban Village, Smart Growth and Transit-Oriented Development. Based on it, this research is to evaluate user-satisfaction on walking environment in both Jongno and gangnam areas after constructing structurally its planning elements. The research conducts T-test to demonstrate whether satisfaction difference for the two case study areas is statistically significant or not, and employs a structural equation modeling method to identify difference in the satisfaction scores among planning elements. Analysis results are as follows: First, the t-test result identifies that pedestrian satisfaction for walking environment planning elements is significantly different between the two areas. Pedestrians in the gangnam area have higher satisfaction score, in general, than them in the other area. Second, the structural equation modeling results demonstrate more specific differences among planning elements for walking environment. In the gangnam area, pedestrians evaluate higher satisfaction on conviviality(0.84), comfortability(0.81), safety//convenience/conspicuity(0.79) and connectivity(0.74), while on conviviality(0.64), safety/convenience/conspicuity(0.61), connectivity(0.55) and comfortability(0.52), in the Jongno area. Based on the analysis results, in conclusion, a priority for improvement of walking physical environment should be differentiated for the two areas. |
