| Abstract |
This study examines the impact of gated communities on resident walkability and changes in the pedestrian network before and after the redevelopment of Jangwi New Town in Seoul. Using Urban Network Analysis (UNA), the study simulates pedestrian route changes by integrating field data with weighted factors. Results indicated that after redevelopment, pedestrian movements on major routes decreased by up to 58%, while internal routes saw up to a 20-fold increase in walkability, diversifying walking paths. Opening pedestrian passages led to a 78% to 113% increase on key routes, and the placement of commercial facilities influenced pedestrian flows. Removing the gated community’s restrictions restored the urban context and reactivated pedestrian pathways. These findings highlight the importance of opening public passages and strategically placing facilities to enhance walkability and urban connectivity. |
