Equality between People and Vehicles Safety in Using Paths in Urban Areas

Abstract

This article is a compilation and summary of the analysis of approaches and feasibility in the design of crossings in an urban context. From the concept of Democrat street that gives importance to pedestrians. and public transport and access to diverse groups of people or the concept of sharing roads (woonerf). This study was conducted in the Bangkok area. In Bangkok, being a capital with a high population density, it is inevitable that the problem of inequality will arise. Development of the city in terms of transportation that goes against the quality of life Insecurity in using people's thoroughfares is caused by the perception of people using vehicles that they ignore other people sharing the thoroughfare. From a survey of statistical data, it was found that in the Bangkok area An accident occurred with a pedestrian user. and the zebra crossing is the highest among ASEAN countries.

The theory of architectural perception helps in designing certain routes or characteristics that create awareness. Awareness of the city entering an area that has a common point with other road users, that is, a crossing. That is the intersection between people and vehicles. which can apply design theory to create a better quality of life and have safety in living

This could be a suggestion or design guideline to correct it. or reduce the safety gap between people and vehicles that Bangkokians are currently encountering
