Abstract Most of university towns in Korea have been degenerated uniformly into commercial streets without reflecting campus culture, local characteristics and residents’ sentiments. Thus, the present study purposed to propose plans to improve the street environment of university towns so that such areas reflect characteristics and individualities unique to university streets. For this purpose, we clarified related concepts by reviewing previous researches, and collected citizens’ opinions through a questionnaire survey. In addition, based on proposals in previous street development projects and similar cases, we suggested a number of plans to solve problems identified from the survey. The results of this study can be used as basic materials for setting directions in planning environmental improvement of university streets.
