arteries dedicated only to traffic”, these plans alone would cut across the existing urban fabric dramatically (see figure 1). Eventually, the study led to formations of Major Street Traffic Plans, written by Olmsted, Bartholomew and Cheney from 1929. When implemented, the plans altered urban form in American cities with new openings, extensions and street patterns to reduce barriers to traffic (Roth, 2007). Figure 1. Proposed Plans for Downtown, Los Angeles (Traffic Commission of City and County

Introduction Traffic congestion and air pollution are becoming growing problems in many cities in Malaysia. In order to discourage automobile dependency, and increase pedestrian activities particularly for short trips, the government has begun to promote non-motorized travel options by improving pedestrian facilities that promote an assured level of convenience, comfort, and security for potential users.

shared spaces. The principles discovered throughout these case studies will assist in developing an assessment criteria that is reliable and effective. New Road, Brighton, London New Roads shared space design has had an impressive design impact. Traffic volumes have reduced by 93%, and vehicle speeds remain below 20km/hr. The road has many physical features that occupy the street such as benches, restaurant, and café and bar seating, vegetation and pedestrian dominated, with a carriageway width of
