Through a comprehensive analysis of utilization trends and case studies of actual applications

Abstract

This study examined the utilization of administrative plans and area-based visions in pedestrian-friendly road implementation through a questionnaire survey of 139 designated roads as of March 31, 2024. While plan utilization during implementation was limited, it effectively functioned in consensus building and legitimizing system introduction. The study concluded that utilization possibilities vary according to stakeholder attributes across different scenarios including consensus formation and road space utilization policy development.
