| Abstract |
Walking is an essential activity that constitutes the beginning and end of all mobility in cities, and pedestrian-friendly environments are no exception in smart cities. This study aims to identify key pedestrian-friendly and smart technology factors in pedestrian environments within smart cities, and propose concrete measures for improving such environments to facilitate a transition towards peopleand space-centered smart cities. Through a review of previous studies and literature, pedestrian-friendly and smart technology factors in smart city environments were identified. Based on these, an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was applied to surveys conducted with 27 experts to derive the importance and priority of these factors. The analysis revealed that safety (0.4423) was the most critical factor among pedestrian-friendly elements, with effective sidewalk width, vehicle regulation and management, and pedestrian-vehicle separation and boundary as key indicators. In terms of smart technology factors, the sidewalk area (0.4055) was the most important, with smart transit hubs, smart sidewalk design, and smart rest facilities being highly prioritized. Furthermore, based on the analysis results, this study presents gradual and specific recommendations for improving smart city pedestrian environments, and provides foundational data for pedestrian environment design. |
