Evaluation of pedestrian pathway facilities’ compliance with technical standards along Diponegoro Road corridor, Pangkalpinang City

This study aimed to evaluate the compliance of pedestrian path facilities along the Diponegoro Road Corridor in Pangkalpinang City with the technical standards outlined in Circular Letter of the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing No. 02/SE/M/2018 . The study employed a standards-based audit supplemented by key informant interviews. Data were collected through field observations, measurements, documentation, and interviews with four key informants. The results showed an overall compliance rate of 11.11%, with 3 compliant and 24 non-compliant indicators out of the 27 indicators assessed. The geometric aspect had the highest compliance rate at 66.67%, followed by accessibility at 20%, while the other four aspects recorded 0% compliance. Non-compliance was primarily associated with obstructions in pedestrian spaces, surface damage, inadequate connectivity, and limitations in crossing and supporting facilities. These findings highlight the need for improvements and reorganisation of pedestrian facilities to enhance safety, comfort, and accessibility for all users.
