Abstract

The playable street is an indispensable part of a child-friendly city. Taking “playability identification” as the orientation, the study explores street playability from the subject and object dimensions and groups index factors into different hierarchies via the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Accordingly, a scale of street playability influence factors and indexes and an evaluation system for playable streets are established. The research adopts the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE) to analyse the playability of Sujiatun Road in Shanghai as the subject. Through the IPA, The indicators in the Focused Area are the main optimisation directions for the road to improve the play experience. At last, based on the evaluation results, this study proposes a method to enhance the playability of street by improving the continuity of street play spaces, creating informal street game scenes and increasing children’s participation.
