1. Encourages public transport usage
2. Encourages walking
3. Safer walking experience for those presently walking.
In Malaysia, we are far from reaching this. This journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. That first step is Taipan USJ10 (well, since i'm councillor for zone 3).
My goal is, that from any single point in Taipan to another, there would be proper walkpaths. There are already some walkpaths present in Taipan, and lots of 5-foot ways. Now, its to put in place the missing links. The Engineering Dept will study this, and will present a paper in June on the way forward, what needs to be done. Based on financial implication, we'll see how we can head forward, little by little.
What say you?

Yes please! BTW are you working with TRANSIT on any of these efforts?
I am part of TRANSIT. We want to not only improve pedestrian walkpaths, but also the public transport (bus service) here in Subang Jaya.

I concurr with youon this, Rajiv! It is also the reason why I enjoy walking whenever I am in Singapore. Or in certain parts of Bandar Sunway, especially the stretch from Sunway College to Menara Sunway. Their walkways are also beautifully landscaped and shady trees are planted along them. It is so much safer to walk along the walkways where it would not be so easy for snatch thief to grab our bags. Please let us have our walkway!
