PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to compare the consistency of widths by analyzing the current situation of the sidewalk in Korea and Japan Neighborhoods Area. METHODS: Literature on the sidewalk width of the Neighborhood Area is reviewed to compare the consistency of width. Through on-site surveys, We identify the current status of sidewalk in Korea and Japan. This compares the sidewalk width consistency in the Neighborhood Area. RESULTS : The width of whole sidewalks in Japan is ranged 330~445cm, which is lAvger than The width of whole sidewalks in Korea, ranged 237~420cm. Frontage Zone width is ranged 60~65cm in Japan, similar to 60cm in Korea. However, in Korea, there is a lAvge difference between Frontage Zone width and walking width average, and the standard deviation of width is lAvger than Japan. The Pedestrian Zone width is ranged 172~325cm in Japan, which is lAvger than ranged 0~295cm in Korea. The width of the Furniture Zone is ranged 135 ~ 331cm in Japan and lAvger than ranged 90~225cm in Korea. In Korea, the difference between the Furniture Zone width and the walking average width is small, and the standard deviation of width is smaller than that of Japan. CONCLUSIONS : In conclusion, the standard deviation of the frontage zone and the pedestrian zone width, which are included in the valid sidewalk width, The Korea is lAvger than in Japan. valid sidewalk width of Korea sidewalk is inconsistent. valid sidewalk width for wheelchair users does not meet the width of more than 2 meters.
