Abstract

The objective of this paper is to rate pedestrian facilities in Malacca World Heritage Site using Pedestrian Index (P-Index) method. P-Index has four indicators to assess pedestrian facilities namely mobility (M), safety (S), facility (F) and accessibility (A). The two stars rating for pedestrian facilities in Malacca WHS can be interpreted as unfavorable to pedestrians. This reflected the poor walking environment of Malacca WHS and improvement strategy is necessary in order to create a pedestrian friendly environment in the heritage city.
