Abstract

The study area,Cheonan Stream, is an urban river that flows through urban areas in close proximity to densely populated areas and multi-use facilities. The natural river improvement project from 2006 to 2015 improved the quality of life of local residents with the improvement of river function, the restoration of the natural ecosystem and the securement of hydrophilic space. A bike way in the constructed waterside space was built focusing on trails. This study suggests improvements appropriate for insufficient bike way function-related regulations. The problems of ramps, river crossing facilities, stairway facilities, safety facilities, signs, road markings, and parking facilities, etc.have arisen in the utilization situation and citizen consciousness survey. As an improvement, it was suggested that 12% or fewer ramps should be improved, a submerged bridge should be installed at 7 places separated by stepping bridges, and signs and road markings according to bike way-related regulations should be installed and bike parking facilities at Cheonan station and Cheonan bus terminal should be expanded. The bike way in the waterfront of ChoenanCheon(river) will increase the accessibility and utilization rate of short-distance transportation with the institutional expansion of bike use facilities and work organizations and the improvement of facilities in accordance with urban rivers and bike-related regulations. Therefore, it is expected that the development of the living space will be beneficial for the citizens due to the elimination of traffic in the city and the activation of bike traffic.

본 연구 대상지 천안천은 도심지 내 주거 밀집지역과 다중이용시설에 근접하여 도심지를 관류하는 도시하천이다. 2006년부터 2015년까지 진행된 자연형 하천 정화사업은 하천기능 제고와 자연생태계 복원 및 친수공간을 확보하여 지역주민 삶의 질 향상을 도모하였다. 조성된 수변공간 내 자전거도로는 산책로 중심으로 사업이 시행되어 부족한 자전거도로 기능을 관련 법규에 알맞은 개선점을 제시하고자 한다. 활용실태 및 시민의식조사에서는 경사로, 하천 횡단시설, 계단시설, 안전시설, 표지판 및 노면표시, 주차시설 등의 문제점이 도출되었다. 그 개선점으로 경사로 12% 이하 개선과 징검다리로 단절된 구간 7개소에 잠수교 설치를 제시하였고, 자전거도로 관련 법규에 따른 표지판 노면표시 설치와 대중교통 환승에 필요한 천안역과 천안 버스터미널의 자전거 주차시설 확충 등을 제안하였다. 천안천 수변공간 내 자전거도로는 자전거 이용시설과 업무 조직의 제도적인 확충과 도시하천 자전거도로 관련 법규에 따른 시설개선으로 접근성과 단거리 이동의 이용률을 높일 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 생활교통 공간의 발전은 도심 교통난 해소와 자전거 교통 활성화에 기인하여 시민의 편익 증대가 기대된다.
