 [ABSTRACT]


  In this study, various ways to improve the poor pedestrian environment in the downtown area of a small to medium-sized city were considered. To achieve this, an initial exploration was conducted through a humanistic reflection on walking, examining the diverse meanings walking holds in contemporary society beyond being a mere means of transportation. In modern society, walking is found to encompass various meanings such as contemplation, strolling, exercise, participation, and travel.


  Next, laws and regulations related to creating walkable streets were examined, and major domestic cases were reviewed. Walkable streets can take various forms, not necessarily excluding vehicles but coexisting with them through techniques like mixed-use paths alongside one-way traffic and parking. Particularly in local cities where public transportation is limited, and car usage is prevalent, parking issues become crucial in designing desirable walking environments.


  In projects aimed at improving pedestrian environments, effective communication with residents is vital, going beyond simple hardware approaches like securing sidewalks and installing crosswalks. In areas like commercial districts, resistance from residents can hinder project progress, making community education initiatives, workshops, and visits to advanced locations essential for gaining community understanding.


  Taking these factors into account, this study proposes alternative walkable street options for specific sections of downtown Cheongju. Suggestions include enhancing the aesthetic appeal of pedestrian bridges, creating public transportation zones, transitioning to one-way traffic in certain segments, and applying mixed-use roads, considering the unique characteristics of each area.
