Abstract

This study aims to conduct a study related to the need for public facilities on Jalan Soekarno-Hatta, West Nias Regency, which is one of the main routes connecting tourist areas and economic centers in the area. This road has a strategic role in supporting community mobility and is the main access for tourists. However, based on public observations and perceptions, public facilities along the road are still inadequate, which has an impact on the comfort and safety of road users. This study uses survey and interview methods to explore public opinions regarding the condition of existing facilities, such as roads, sidewalks, street lighting, rest places, and other public facilities. The results of the study show that the community expects improvements in road quality, the addition of safe sidewalks, better street lighting, and other supporting facilities such as public toilets and rest areas, supporting technology. This increase in public facilities is not only expected by local residents, but also by tourists who cross the route. The study also highlights the importance of cooperation between local governments and the private sector to overcome budget constraints and create better facilities. It is hoped that the improvement of public facilities on Jalan Soekarno-Hatta will improve the quality of life of the community, support the local economy, and strengthen the tourist attraction of West Nias Regency.

Abstract

This study discusses the sustainability performance of public green open space (RTH) in Medan City through an integrated approach that includes environmental quality, social quality, and accessibility. The methods used include regression analysis, correlation, and ANOVA to test the influence of each variable on urban sustainability. The results showed that these three variables had a significant effect, with the regression model able to explain 68.4% of the sustainability variance. Social quality was the most dominant factor (β = 0.412; r = 0.74), followed by environmental quality (r = 0.68) and accessibility (r = 0.61). Spatially, USU Urban Forest shows the highest ecological performance with a canopy cover of 78%, an NDVI value of 0.72, and a lower average microclimate temperature (27.1°C) compared to Ahmad Yani Park (29.3°C) and Gajah Mada Park (30.1°C). However, Taman Ahmad Yani obtained the highest overall sustainability score (85/100) because it was supported by superior social perception (4.35) and accessibility (4.60). Meanwhile, Taman Gajah Mada showed moderate performance (75.3/100), and USU Urban Forest received a lower score (70/100) due to limited facilities and access range. The results of the ANOVA test showed a significant difference between locations (Sig = 0.000), which indicates that the Green Open Space typology affects sustainability. Ahmad Yani Park tends to excel in social and accessibility aspects, while USU's urban forests play a greater role in ecological stability. This study confirms that the sustainability of urban RTH will be optimal if ecological, social, and accessibility functions are developed synergistically and not partially.
