Existing conditions indicate a pedestrian is not yet available in full along the corridor. This becomes an important subject included in the study. This study focuses on the physical setting of the tram line and point of dismissal, with consideration of the needs and activities of the user. Analysis carried out by the comparison between the existing condition to the conditions after the tram line is included to obtain the effectiveness coefficient that can be used as a basis for more detailed planning.
