영문 초록

This study researched the cases of urban parks in Japan that has established and enforced legislation related to barrier-free(BF) prior to Korea. This was in order to verify the effect of BF improvement of park facilities to promote user convenience in urban parks and to show directions. To understand the effectiveness of BF improvement done in Japan, we conducted a consciousness survey and evaluation for the users of the parks designed/constructed under the standards of the guidelines for urban parks in Japan. BF improvement of park facilities based on the set standards to enhance park user convenience has an effect on improvement of park user convenience. However, improvements suitable for expected users’ behavior including attributes of neighboring residents and characteristics of parks might be more efficient to increase user convenience. This should focus on items showing different evaluations for each park such as the slope of the entrance or width of path, rather than applying the same standards to every park. It would be necessary to place facilities based on users’ behavior and characteristics, and by including playground equipment into the contents of the guidelines. It would be necessary to add not only standards of design and construction, but also a manual of maintenance/management. Such standards that can efficiently deliver information necessary for use of internal facilities of parks should also be prepared.
