Abstract

<p>It is important to present the effect of pedestrian friendly streets on pedestrians and neighborhood residents in order to enhance development of such streets. In this research, the authors focus on the subjective well-being as a part of the effect of pedestrian priority streets. It is said that the subjective well-being has two aspects; one is “hedonia”, which consists of pleasure and comfort and the other is “eudaimonia”, which consists of meaningful life, self fulfilment, feeling of progress and so on. The effects of pedestrian friendly street on the two types of subjective well-being were analysed by questionnaire survey. The authors found that improvement of residential road by traffic safety measures can promote pedestrians’ hedonia and eudaimonia. Furthermore, it is suggested that the involvement of residents in a workshop for traffic safety planning may promote the residents’ eudaimonia.</p>
