Abstract
The conventional studies of traffic landscape mostly focused on the aesthetical requirements from the designers' perspective. However, there has been a lack of concern and research from the users' perspective, which serves as the basis of traffic landscape design and construction. This paper, which is based on the tram construction project in Zhangjiang Area, Shanghai, explores the user's preference to traffic landscape. Users include drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and nearby residents. To explore the preferences for traffic landscape elements among different people in different districts, a survey was conducted to sample users' attitudes towards traffic landscape. The relative importance of various landscape elements can be simultaneously evaluated from this survey.
