Recently Korea has established a new district dimensional planning system called as the District Unit Planning System, which is a unified regulation of two previous similar planning systems of the Urban Design System and the Detailed District Planning System.
Meanwhile the two planning systems had been used for urban development and management together but they had been not distinguished each other in the management of urban policy, because they had had very similar characteristics, function and roles.
Now we need a new functional and effective planning system for ideal and practical improvement of urban space and environment.
Even though the existed two planning systems had a positive effectives for development of the new cities and streets, they had still a regulative limit by which they could not control and develop the existed urban environment as plan.
By the way recently government have been managing the public political projects for improvement of the existed urban environment and they were revealed as practical and effective method for existed urban environment.
All the more, the planning system has to have a creative and artical design concept and to reveal the contents ideally but the existed planning system had been not, just revealed their future volume in building and determined their ranges according to each areal characteristics.
Therefore the purpose of this study is to reveal ideal planning profitable to the built-up area especially to the commercial street in it and to propose the enforceable district unit planning system connecting to the existed public political projects.
The study area was Myung-dong central street, Insa-dong street and the Ehwa University entrance block and the suits streets and the results are as follows.
First of all, in order to establish the rational district unit planning system, the determination of the area is most important and as the criteria of it the similar characteristical area is to be considered which has to contain the space which can reveal the areal characteristics and images and major streets range. and fundamentally the district unit planning system has to be established for total urban planning area for ideal and rational spatial policy.
According to the planning objectives, the planning expression is to be revealed differently and the objectives can be expressed as arrangement, administration and conservation, for example.
Before planning, it is required to find the characteristic factors which can reveal the areal characteristics, for example, contextual type of the buildings, steet patern or landmarks.
The planning is to be enforced as three directions, they are the design of the street images, spaces and environments.
In the aspects of the design of the steet images, entrance, center, whole image is to be considered to activate the whole atmosphere lively, and especially the design of the square can be used for such purpose strategically. For the improvement of the images, Public aspects are to be developed first and for that the public political projects can be used effectively, and for further development the redevelopment method have to be used in partial area.
In the aspects of the design of the street spaces, the essential guides for land use and building use are needed and the examples of the expression for future development scale and volume of the buildings are to be proposed partially considering the factors for conservation. In the transportation system, pedestrian space are to be focused and the political control of the use of the street can be used for maintenance of the pedestrian focused street environment.
In the aspects of the design of the street environments, unified packing of the pedestrian street, diverse and creative sets of the street furnitures and trees are needed. They are to be designed to activate the existed environment lively. For the signs of the shops short-term and combined improvement among the shops are more effective for the improvement of the commercial environment under the public financial supports rather than individual improvement of the each shops.
For the increasement of the enforcement of the district unit planning system, the step by step enforcement planning is to be used rationally and effectively. According to the priority of the designed planning the planning is to be enforced step by step and first of all the development of the public aspects are to be enforced affirmatively connecting to the public political projects. And in each parts of the constructive factors of the commercial streets, the improvements are to be planned and enforced to change together at the same time.
Finally in aspects of not-activated parts of the improvements, the district unit planning system are to be re-arranged every 5 years and the continuous management system are to be prepared so that practical improvement and maintenance of the designed street environment may be done.
