Jalan Wong Ah Fook is situated within high rise
buildings and the width of the road and
pedestrian walkway is wider than Jalan Trus,
which makes the user feels tiny and humble.
Jalan Trus has narrower road width
which makes the scale smaller. Hence,

There is a huge contrast of the topography of
both roads (Jalan Wong Ah Fook & Jalan Trus).
Hence the user need to use the staircase in
order to access to the other side of the road.

harder for the OKU to cross through.

87. AMENITIES
IMPROVEMENTS
In comparison to Jalan Wong Ah Fook, The amenities at Jalan Trus are limited and less
organised. The insufficient amount of dustbins leads to garbage disposal by the locals
along the pedestrian street. The absence of zebra crossing and railings along the
pedestrian streets also gives a sense of insecurity to the pedestrians.
There is no definite boundary between a pedestrian walkway and the main road along
Jalan Wong Ah Fook, which results in Motorbikers to use the pathway causing a lesser
number of pedestrians to use that path.
Along Jalan Wong Ah Fook, a number of amenities have been provided.
The presence of railing along one pedestrian pathway and the Planter
boxes provide a definite boundary between the main road and the
pathway. This gives a sense of security and a provides a comfortable
environment to the users. Fire Hydrants are provided less than 45
meters from each other. Zebra crossings are available for the
pedestrians to cross over to the other side. Sufficient dustbins result in a
cleaner environment.
