Wat Puttabucha Planning
First Problem : T-Cross
With
the eco-friendly willing to build a sustainable livable city , more and more
Bangkok people like to change their transportation by bike .
General bike on the
road occupies an area of approximately 4-10m2 / bike , but when at
the stop line before the intersection crowded density is large, according to
research data show that the density of the intersection of the bike up to 1.56
/ m2 .
Therefore, proper
planning is very important for smooth traffic and road safety .
Plan A : Set Diversion Island
When the bicycle rider
out of the temple , the main road have a turn , it`s very dangerous for the low
speed rider , so T-Cross set a diversion
island that the shape like crescent to keep the riders` and driver`s safety .
1. With
diversion Island, bicycle across the street with the diversion island is
different with not set signalized intersections , bicycle more gather .
2. Waiting
area in the diversion island, bicycles need to enter through the right-turn
lane diversion island waiting to cross the street .
3. After
entering the diversion island, waiting across the street, there have the same
acceleration and deceleration characteristics of non-motor vehicles and
pedestrians in diversion Island
signalized intersection
Plan B : Bicycle prohibitive area and Left turn lanes :
When the bicycle rider
cross road , There exists motor vehicle, non-indirect straight and turn right conflict , In theory,
there are 6 presence of cross points in T-cross.
By prohibiting bicycle
turn right into the center of the conflict zone to reduce the number of
conflicts , in order to make the bike can travel safety outside the prohibitive
area, you can set up a dedicated lane (sidewalk) for bike turn left outside the
prohibitive area Road with clear markings .
In order to keep safety
, smart traffic lights for pedestrians and riders must be have .
Plan C : Turn left far cited cross (&Crossing under the bridge)
1. Let
bike to turn left through the intersection, where there are signs in the near
with U-Turn , so turn around , then turn right .
Suitable for bicycle traffic turn
left relatively large and go straight motor vehicle traffic density is
relatively high intersection .
This plan is cost-saving idea , in
order to keep safety , it`s better draw a dedicated lane to combine the bicycle
lane and sidewalk together .
2. It`s similar with the
first idea , the diffrert is when rider turn left through the intersection ,
ride stright when meet a bridge and brand named Ta Maeng , then crossing under
the bridge , and turn right ride stringt .
What we do is just
clear the road under bridge and build it more convinent for the rider .
Plan D : Two parking method & Bicycle Gantt
The motor vehicle and
bicycle parking Line separated by intersection import road ( from the temple )
, bicycle parking lines will be set before the vehicle stop line, bicycle can
be quickly turn right through the
intersection after the release, behind motor vehicle traffic is not will be
disturbed.
This method is design
for the future when there are large flow of traffic pass in and out of the
temple , and suitable for large and moderate left turn bicycle traffic flow of
vehicles and small level crossing .
By Install speed humps
or using white paint mark bicycle crosswalk , tips or advice motor vehicle
driver's attention bicycles, motor vehicles will slow down encounter this
crosswalk .
Second Problem : Market
1.
Floating Market
Floating market is
a market where goods are sold from
boats and the shop on the water , originating
in times and places where water transport played an important role in daily
life, most floating markets operating today mainly serve as tourist attractions
.
So as a major tourist
destination, the floating market is better selling travel necessities,
souvenirs, arts and crafts, heritage antiques, travel sporadic supplies by the
old traditional way from a small boat and the shop .
Characteristic tourism commodities
should have the following aspects: national and regional, artistic,
monumental and practical unity and diversity and ease with nature . Also , the
small boat sales locations can be flexible to move to each channel, but here is
the center of origin .
I suggest to build the
floating market near the temple , scattered on both sides of the river , for
the reason of tourist the temple and buy some food and fruit in the market ,
but the watercourse should be widen , in order to the smooth flow of traffic
and large-scale floating market . and most important , the floating market complement
with famers market , so just opened at special event or every weekend .
2.
Farmers Market
Farmers
market one attached households agricultural production, marketing of
agricultural products for farmers to provide services; the other end attached
to the daily consumption of urban households, providing the full range, high
quality fresh produce for urban and rural residents .
Considered
from an economic, social, and development of all aspects , the farmers market
is a good choice .
No
matter farmers market or other small market is very far from here , so build a
farmers market at the convenient transportation and public places is useful, because
local people or the tourism can by bus / boat / bike /walk to the market ,especially
the tourism have the willing to buy some Thailand traditional food and fruit to
have a taste .
Inside
of the temple yard there is a square for the famer market ,and there have
already have some people sell goods on the square , what we should do is build
infrastructure , such as : Trading floor studio / Entrance and channel / Health
facilities / Water supply and drainage facilities / Power supply facilities /
Ventilation facilities.
Market
should be divided by vegetables, fruits, grain, oil, dry goods, spices, fish,
eggs, meat, soy products, cooked food, merchandise and other goods categories,
rational distribution of the various stalls. Raw and cooked, wet and dry,
should channel separation between each business areas.
Third problem : Parking
1.
Parking area
This
area is at the opposite of famers market , this parking area planned for Taxis
/ Unloading car / Motorcycles ,if possible to build awning for shadow , it`s convenient for the seller parking their
motorcycle and car ,let traffic more smoothly, market more neat and orderly, also tourisms can take
taxi or motorcycle form here .
I`d
like choose the parking area as the picture below , Phuttha Buch Road and Prach
Utha Uthit Road beside the parking area in the northeast , it`s convenient pass
in and out , the farmers market in the north just separated by a narrow road
with less motor vehicle , it`s convenient for the seller take heavy goods from
the parking area , in the west is river with boat stop , it`s convenient for
the tourists and local people to take transportation . in the south and
southeast , there are Warehouse stores or Integrated supermarket and floating
market , in all , it is very convenient for people distribution .
2.
Bicycle-for-rent service :
Rented
bicycle change of lifestyle for a new generation ,
to solve urban problems of difficult bicycle parking and improve the efficiency
of short-distance travel and attract car with short distance to travel to
non-motorized transport mode shift . Bicycle access to public transport is very
meaningful , conducive to the development of green transport, and promote
environment-friendly and resource-saving society ; To make up for the lack of
public transport .
Leasing point laid in a
prominent position near the entrance area , attention public bike to the timely
deployment and festivals arrangements , services at the university campus .
There have two ways to
leasing , auto leasing for the local people and human services for the tourist.
For example : the local people`s main task is shopping , when they buy too many
goods and can`t carry on , maybe they will consider to rent a bicycle to ride
back ; the tourism`s main task is tourist , they want cost less time to see
more , so when they ride bicycle to temple , floating market , arboretum or any
other place ,it`s not a bad choice .Also the student in KMUTT go back and forth
the downtown , It`s very convenient for the students .
Fourth problem : Arboretum
Arboretum of tasks: research, tourism, science
popularization, production .
For the research , there need a instructors to introduce for
the kids , people of different ages come to study ; for the tourism , tropical
plants and Thailand gardening is very famous ,it`s worth to take the boat or bicycle
or walk have a sightseeing ; for the science popularization ,the student in college
of agriculture look the arboretum as a research base ,also they have the
ability to protect the plant ; for the production , in the harvest season , all
the people can take part in the free tasting event .
Arboretum requirements as much as possible to maintain a
healthy natural environment, so should maintain a certain distance from the
city, but also the city has convenient transport links. Also ,the arboretum
should contain cold drink , shop and warehouse .
Planning Map :
Warehouse
stores are mainly subsistence management industry, warehousing and sales are
one, low sales, located in the urban fringe, with convenient transportation .
Commodity structure mainly in household goods,
clothing , stationery, home appliances, automotive supplies, supplies
mainly indoors, breadth wider focus on commodities, Target customers with small
retailers, restaurants, consumer-oriented for cheap sales.
Comprehensive
supermarket sales popularization of supplies mainly , to meet customer demand
for one-time purchase of retail formats , located in residential areas, urban
fringe, Target customers are satisfied consumer demand in the largest
proportion of low-income .
For
the research of site selection , it`s better near the main road (Phuttha Bucha
Road and Prach Utha Uthit Road) ,if not , I suggest connect the Kanchanaphisek
Road and Chalerm Maha Nakhon Expy with the Supermarket , not only for the local
economic development but also alleviate other road`s traffic pressure .
