Basic plan |
- Formation of nature-friendly surroundings - Securing the identity
|
Focuses in design |
1) Terrace spaces on both sides of the stream 2) Formation of green areas on terrace spaces on both sides of the stream and sidewalks 3) Ecological consideration for biotopes, swamps, habitats for birds and fishes, and shallows 4) Walk paths, convenience facilities, and information offices 5) Wall paintings and other landmark items

Design direction |
1) Easier access to the stream 2) Utilization of terrace spaces on both sides of the stream 3) Pipes are buried underground 4) Making the slope of the stream embankment softer 5) Stressing out the ecological conservation

Formation of high/low-water terrace spaces |
High-water terrace spaces |
1) To make concrete walls look less gloomy 2) To employ traditional methods of building stream banks and retaining walls with stones 3) To enhance esthetic quality based on the elevation plan employing the golden section of 1:1.618
|
Low-water terrace spaces |
1) Against floods 2) For the eco-diversity 3) For enhancing the esthetic quality of both sides of the stream 4) To consider local characteristics when adopting the shapes o the terrace spaces

Walk paths, roads on both sides of the stream, and access roads to the stream |
Walk paths |
- Design directions |
+ Emphasis made on an easier access to the stream, smooth movement of people, and convenience in operation and management + Use of environmental-friendly materials. Consideration given to colors and feelings + Consideration also given to the operation and management requirements
|
- Dimensions |
+ Length: 12.04km (6.62km for both pedestrians and management / 5.42km for pedestrians only) + Width: 3m for walks and 0.9~2.5m for sections for pedestrians only
|
|
Roads on both sides of the stream |
- Design directions |
+ Making it easier to get access to both stores located along the stream and terrace spaces + Higher safety for vehicles and convenience of operation/management of relevant facilities and need for emergency escape in case of flood
|
- Dimensions |
+ For sidewalks: 3m in front of the buildings, 2.0m for parking the vehicles loading and offloading goods, and 1.5m near the stream + For roads: Two 3m lanes where vehicles run at about 50km/hr
|
- Design concept for roads on both sides of the stream |
Access roads |
- Design directions |
+ Easier access to the stream + Prevention of floods + Consideration given to the entire esthetic quality of the area
|
- Relevant structures |
+Steps leading to the stream: 23 locations / Pedestrian access to the stream: 8 locations |

Bio-Tops |
Design directions |
1) Construction of an environmental-friendly park 2) Building up some spaces where people can get their own hands-on experience of wild life 3) Natural formation of eco-friendly spaces
