ALIH FUNGSI TROTOAR UNTUK PEJALAN KAKI

Abstract

In Jakarta, the sidewalks for pedestrians, are not only bad but also switched
functionally. With that being said, sidewalks and zebra cross have become
meaningless. PELANGI, one of the Non-Governmental Organization (LSM)
that works dominately on the urban studies, mentioned that 65% of the accident
on main roads, sadly involved the death of pedestrians, whereas 35% of the
victims are underaged kids. These facts, though, have to be considered as our
motivation to work on the sidewalks, making it suitable and comfortable to be
walked through (walkable). Being supported and encouraged by the qualitative
method and literature, indeed, pedestrians also have the same rights in using
the roads.
