Abstract

Although there are clear standards for urban planning, standards for measuring the quality of life of residents, and research that has proven the importance of community participation in decision-making to ensure a comfortable design that achieves community satisfaction in all design aspects, when redesigning and expanding streets to solve a specific problem such as traffic congestion, this is not clearly achieved.
A questionnaire was conducted for engineers working in this field twice, once without knowledge of the area on which the study will be conducted, and again after clarifying the area. Based on the engineers’ opinions after their knowledge of the area, some change appeared in the importance (weight) of the criterion, and this achieves the impact of the area and site conditions on the design. Also by recording the opinions of visitors, users, and residents of the region, the actual design deficiencies of some standards showed some important additions to provide a quality of life.
Through the results of the questionnaire analysis and in light of the research problem in question, a set of points were extracted as steps in an attempt to formulate a methodology based on raising the design efficiency and re-planning to ensure the quality of design performance.
The study recommends those interested and working in this field to determine the criteria that must be taken into account when designing, taking into account the characteristics of the region and the location of the region.
