Abstract

This study was conducted to identify crime vulnerable factors of walking street of local cities and to seek alternatives along with CPTED perspective. The streets around A University and B Girls' Middle School in J City, which were selected as the target site, are divided into three sections: 1) a sparsely populated residential area, 2) a street around underutilized urban infrastructure and retaining walls, and 3) a street connected to the middle school entrance. The results of user perception analysis through crime statistical analysis, field surveys, surveys, and design workshops can be summarized as follows.
 On the street of the first residential area, pedestrians' anxiety was high due to the university-linked retaining walls, piloties of multi-family houses, and spaces between buildings, so it was necessary to strengthen the visibility of lighting for night safety and crime prevention facilities.
 The second street extends 300m long, and it was necessary to install facilities to respond to emergency situations because the general stadium was left unattended and there were few people day and night.
 The third street is used as a way to and from school for middle school girls, and it was found that alternatives are needed to prevent traffic accidents along with sex crimes (trying to steal them).
 Summarizing the above results, although it must be used in daily life, there is a lack of facilities for space activation on deserted pedestrian paths, and the existing crime prevention facilities have a lack of number or low visibility, so the risk of personal crime is very high. For the safety of such pedestrian paths, environmental improvement by applying the principle of enhancing the legibility and activity support of CPTED is necessary, and additional facilities for traffic safety are also needed.
