an empirical analysis was conducted on the actual pedestrian environment improvement district project promoted by the Ministry of Public Administration and Security and the Seoul Metropolitan Government in 2019.

Through field surveys and questionnaires, comparative analysis before and after the project, user perception survey, and satisfaction survey were conducted. Though the pedestrian environment was improved, and the effect of the project was evident after the project, the limitations of the project also existed. In the process of project promotion, there were limitations in applicable design techniques and operational strategies due to the lack of understanding of the intention and purpose of the project, expertise, etc. In order to promote an efficient and effective project, it is necessary to continuously educate working-level personnel and strengthen the evaluation of the project.
