Pedestrian Activity is popularly associated with health issues.
However, pedestrian activity has more contributions. Especially in
business or commercial districts, a lot of pedestrian activity
takes place. Not all of them are related with health issues.
Researchers have found that pedestrian activity not only creates a
buzzing vibrancy in the commercial districts, but also can
significantly contribute to the local security, which is also a
very important issue. Therefore, there have been searches for
variables which can generate and sustain such pedestrian activity.
Studies show that though there are some universal variables, some
of them are specific to local context. This study searched for such
variables in physical environment, which can create and sustain
such vibrancy in the context of urban commercial centers in
Malaysia. With a method of observing pedestrian activity, and
hypothesizing the intensity of people as the parameter of such
vibrancy, this study adopted several key statistical methods to
come up with some interesting findings. It showed that certain
components of mixed land use patterns and streetscapes are
significant to generate and sustain pedestrian vibrancy.
