서울시 보행 편의성 지수 측정과 정책과제

초록

This study aims to apply Walkability Index(WI) concept to measure the spatial pattern of walkability in Seoul, Korea. The typical Index includes weighted connectivity index, entropy index, FAR index, and household density index. Also, this study attempts to change the weight on each sub-index in WI to trace the change of the Index over Seoul City. The tool for finding hot-spot of the Index, Getis-Ord G, was applied to find the hot-spot and cool-spot of the WI. Average value of WI within specific distance-interval near subway stations, bus-stops, and arterial roads was higher than that of the outside of the distance-interval. This paper suggests the public policy is necessary for stronger connection among WI over Seoul City, higher priority on higher land use mix and shopping FAR, greater walkability near subway stations and bus-stops, and improving WI considering local contexts.
