Description
Summary:Active mobility is the use of daily physical activity as a mode of transportation. It covers transportation by foot, bicycle, and other means of movement involving physical effort. It excludes activities like biking, walking, and other physical exercise done for recreation. Walking, cycling, pedal-assisted electric bikes, kick-scooters, and skateboards are all examples of active modes of transportation; mopeds, electric bikes without a pedal assist, and electric scooters are not. However, the state of abandonment that historical districts have experienced since the second post-war period is a result of the migration of economic activity to the suburbs, insufficient urban services, lower degree of accessibility, and absence of green urban areas. It aims to intervene in all aspects of urban systems to protect and renew existing heritage. Therefore, the intention of this study is to investigate on how to create a successful heritage destination in the urban context that implement an active mobility approach through heritage trail connectivity to promotes heritage tourism and cultural value at South Klang.
