“…A place has high imageability when certain physical elements and arrangements attract attention, evoke feelings, and create a lasting impression [4]. The image of the city is formed based on the response between residents and environmental, economic, social, and technological developments that reflect the local climate in the city [5]. The image of the city is also related to the ease of orientation and feelings of security and comfort in the city [3].…”

Imageability is the quality of a place that makes it recognizable, memorable, and different from other places. It determines the character and identity of city space. On the other hand, slum settlements are a severe problem in several countries worldwide. Urbanization makes urban space denser and causes disorder if there is no good urban spatial development. This condition then affects the image of the city, which becomes less good, disorganized, and has no character. In its role, good quality (non-slum) urban settlement will improve the image of the city. However, in the context of slum settlements in Indonesia, under certain conditions, it can have good imageability as part of the identity of urban settlements. This paper aims to assess the imageability of the slum area of Mojo Village, Surakarta City, which will be used as a basis for settlement upgrading. This study uses a qualitative method with a visual assessment survey using the main parameters of the condition of the open spaces and buildings. A visual assessment survey is a survey to assess visual quality by observers with predetermined assessment criteria. This study found that predominantly settlement neighborhoods have low imageability, but some places have high imageability.

Indian cities are known for their notorious traffic congestion and limited mobility. Increasing per capita income and urbanization are further aggravating the already constrained situation and results in hazards like environmental pollution, accidents and health risks. One of the major reasons for the urban congestion problem is the increasing use of private vehicles. This study addresses the problem of congestion by introducing Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategies. TDM encourages people to shift from private vehicles to public transport modes like mass transit and buses. In this research the Jaipur Walled City is analysed for the empirical research. The research employs an aggregate Logit modelling for analysing modal choice probability. For the purpose of modelling, data is collected by a mix of primary and secondary surveys. Based on the findings, this research discusses strategic interventions in four sectors -road space redesign, public transit improvements, use of MRTS and parking arrangements.
