Abstract

Walkability is an important part of sustainability, as an area’s walkability reflects so many other sustainable factors that take part in a municipality’s makeup. Accessibility, road and walkway conditions, public transportation program safety and accessibility, general safety and land use patterns all contribute to an area’s walkability. Thus, creating or modifying all of these aspects in an urban area is an essential part of sustainable design and something that holds many benefits for the community. The presence of sidewalks and other walking facilities has proven to increase property value and promote surrounding area at Penang. Because sidewalks and connected, well-maintained pedestrian networks allow citizens the ability to safely and conveniently patronize local shops, businesses, and restaurants. Hence, a town or city can benefit economically from having a more walkable environment. Almost anyone can take part in the “walkability” of a town or city no matter how rural or urban. Many countries and municipalities realize today that improved walkability will be an important urban design requirement going forward. This is since walkability provide a range of benefits including health, tourism, environmental and socioeconomic benefits.
