SWOT ANALYSIS ON EXISTING PEDESTRIAN CONDITIONS IN KENDARI, INDONESIA
Pedestrian paths in city parks are public spaces that always attract city residents to visit. The presence of this city park must heed efforts to arrange pedestrian paths that support the walkability of visitors, considering that generally, city parks are located in the city center and with an unlimited age range of visitors. The current paper highlights the evaluation of the performance and satisfaction of pedestrian path users in public green spaces using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) analysis tool and the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) analysis tool, followed by conducting a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to obtain models and strategies for pedestrian paths. Optimal. The results help identify the performance of pedestrian paths and indicate the satisfaction index of pedestrian path users. The comfort of pedestrians on public open space roads needs to be improved. In terms of security, the height of the pedestrian path must be distinguished from the vehicle lane. This study reveals that the performance of existing pedestrian paths classified as good category are facilities for pedestrians with special needs (guiding block), availability of road markings, available crossing lanes, security systems (CCTV, security posts), speed control facilities, and cleanliness level. Those classified as adequate category are pedestrian path dimensions, pedestrian path lighting, the difference in the height of the pedestrian path with the road body, availability of pedestrian markings and signs/signals, the surface texture of materials, seating, climate (shade), shelter, vegetation/shade plants, the number and quality of rubbish bins. Those with poor category are the availability of ramps, pedestrian paths connected to urban transportation elements, continuity of pedestrian paths, barriers on pedestrian paths, crossings, and noise reduction facilities. In addition, the pedestrian path user satisfaction index for services is mostly fairly satisfying (65.57%).
