ANALISIS PERENCANAAN FASILITAS PEJALAN KAKI (STUDI KASUS JALAN PETA KOTA BANDUNG)

Pedestrians are an important part of transportation and also as one of the road users with a level of safety that is vulnerable to accidents. So it is also important to provide safe, secure, and comfortable pedestrian facilities. At the research location, namely on Jalan Peta, there have been no adequate pedestrian facilities so that pedestrian safety is still vulnerable to accidents. The purpose of this study is to plan pedestrian facilities for both walking or crossing that are in accordance with the needs of pedestrians so that they can minimize conflicts between pedestrians and passing vehicles.
This study uses the guidelines issued by the Minister of PUPR in determining the minimum width of pedestrian lanes where the minimum width is 1.5 meters. In determining the need for crossing facilities, it is done by calculating 〖PV〗^2, where (P) is the volume of pedestrians crossing and (V) is the volume of vehicles which are then both matched with recommendations according to the guidelines used.
Based on the analysis of pedestrian facility planning, the highest total pedestrians were found on the north side, 2.45 pedestrians/minute and the highest pedestrians on the south side, 2.75 pedestrians/minute. So that recommendations for pedestrian facilities are obtained in the form of sidewalks with a width of 1.5 meters on both sides. In the analysis of crossing facilities, the largest value (P) was 191 pedestrians/hour and the value (V) was 6103 vehicles/hour with 〖PV〗^2 7.1 × 10^9. So in determining recommendations for road crossing facilities that are in accordance with needs, it is recommended to use pelican crossing facilities.
