DEVELOPMENT APPRAISAL AND AUDIT REPORT

2.1 PROFILE OF KG. DATUK KERAMAT Kampung Datuk Keramat of 275 acres, is a large zone in the Titiwangsa constituency, falling within the boundary of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is located northeast of downtown Kuala Lumpur and borders the district of Ampang in Selangor. The Klang River runs roughly from northeast to the west and acts as a natural divider of Keramat and Ampang. Kg. Datuk Keramat has traditionally been a Malay majority area, being a Malay reserve area.

This area was formerly known as Kampung Tangga Cina. There are two versions of the name of this Kampung Tangga Cina, Formerly, this area is a tin mine. Many Chinese live in the area by working as miners and from there comes the name Kampung Tangga Cina. The presence of a `sacred 'grave in the settlement caused the residents to start calling the area as Kampung Datuk Keramat. Many do not know that the name Kampung Datuk Keramat was taken in conjunction with the presence of a sacred grave there. The location of the grave is located next to the Pasar Keramat. Various superstitious practices are practiced there because they believe it is sacred. Regardless of race, everyone comes to ask for wishes and no less worship. That is why when people ask where to go, their answer is to go to Kg. Datuk Keramat. So this name sticks until it is called Kampung Datuk Keramat. But the owner of the tomb still cannot be identified until today.

It is mainly consisted of low rise and high-rise residential and completed with commercial lots, public facilities, infrastructure and green area. the notable high-end condominium there for example are the Chimes Gurney Residence and Gurney Heights Condominium. Among the landmarks in Kg Datuk Keramat are the only shopping center which is Keramat Mall. This mall however failed to served its purposes. In 2014, a mini Urban Transformation Center (UTC) has been located in the Keramat Mall. Unfortunately, it has been shut down due to the political reason.

There is another one prominent landmark in this Kg. Datuk Keramat which is Pasar Basah Datuk Keramat. This wet market is said to be the oldest one in Kuala Lumpur as this market has been operated for about 40 years now with 330 hawkers. However, in the recent news, the wet market is on its way to be relocated to a new place. Hence, reducing the congestion in the existing area.

Kg. Datuk Keramat is served by three light rail transit stations as part of the Kelana Jaya Line. The three stations are Jelatek, Dato' Keramat and Damai. Kg Datuk Keramat can also be easily accessed via some of the main road which are Jalan Tun Razak and the AKLEH highway.

In the modern days, Kampung Datuk Keramat has experienced the impact of rapid urban development of Kuala Lumpur. Refer to the figure above showing the development change of Kg. Datuk Keramat 2004 to 2020, it can be seen that there was a new development of high-rise residential property at the western and northern side replacing what was previously a landed squatters houses. At the very end of the site on the west, the vacant land was developed into commercial and public facility uses. Nowadays, Kampung Datuk Keramat remains as Malay reserve area, therefore, there are still many single storey houses and wooden houses which mostly are handed down from previous generations. On top of that, the development of Kampung Datuk Keramat seeks to give the residents affordable living lifestyle in Kuala Lumpur. Furthermore, the area has experienced rapid development as its location in the capital city, Kuala Lumpur, and it has expanded into Taman Keramat. Kampung Datuk Keramat is now a mixed development area with great accessibility and variety of amenities and public facilities provision.

2.5 EXISTING DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT The study area, Kampung Datuk Keramat is a mature neighbourhood located within the city of Kuala Lumpur. It is one of the earliest human settlements and is also part of a rapidly blooming urbanized area. These two characteristics of the area of being the oldest settlements and having to keep up with the current development of the city have certainly impacted the existing development concept for Kampung Datuk Keramat.

Referring to Plan 2.4, the current existing development concepts includes several components from the old Kampung Datuk Keramat and the new development developed within Kampung Datuk Keramat. The main land use class that monopolized the area is the residential areas which includes landed residential developments – both old and new developments – and high-rise residential development. One of the supporting components for the settlement is an open space named after the area, Taman Tasik Datuk Keramat, located at the eastern side of the study area. Commercial development is also one of the existing concepts that act as a supporting component for the residential development and it has become one of the main important sector and identity for the area, especially Pasar Lama Datuk Keramat. The other development concepts that also built in the area are the development of public facilities acting as spaces for the community to gather and development of infrastructure and utilities to cater the daily necessities of residents. The development of road networks and highway within the study area is to enhance the mobility of the people and also to improve the accessibility towards the study area.

2.7 PROPERTY MARKET OUTLOOK 2.7.1 MALAYSIA ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE SECOND QUARTER 2020

RM Billion

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the most common indicator used to determine the performance of a nation’s economy. It considers multi-sectoral aspects of the economy which represents the total value of all goods and services produced by an economy over a specific period of time, hence, as property market is one of the contributing sector, it is essential to take into account the nation’s economic performance. Malaysia’s GDP as in second quarter of 2020 has drastically contracted from the positive growth rate at 0.7% to negative growth of -17.1% with the constant price declined as much as 55 billion RM to 289.6 billion RM. This is the lowest growth rate recorded since 1995, and 5.9% lower than in 1998 (previously as the lowest GDP ever recorded). Furthermore, the sectors in the economic production experience negative growth rate except for the agricultural sector which has 1% positive growth. On the other hand, the construction sector which includes the residential buildings and civil engineering has experienced the lowest growth rate which is -44.5%. Similarly, all the sectors in economic expenditure have negative growth rate with Gross Fixed Capital Formation sector has the lowest rate, but except for Governmental final consumption which has positive growth at 2.3%. The second quarter of 2020 had been a challenging time for the country’s economy, the imposed restriction of Movement Control Order (MCO), Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) and Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO) were/are being implemented has severely affected the economic activities in the country. However, the Government efforts are not only limited in containing the pandemic widespread, but economic stimulus packages such as PRIHATIN, PENJANA and other plan are implemented to recover the economic downturn as the impact of COVID-19.

2.7.3 BANDAR KUALA LUMPUR PROPERTY OUTLOOK The district property outlook is considered to get the insights of a more localized market overview. Moreover, Kampung Datuk Keramat falls under the district of Bandar Kuala Lumpur. In the first half of 2020, there was a total of 67,052 units of existing supply, 4,083 incoming supply units and 9,924 planned supply units. Most of these housing supply categories are dominated with stratified residential property type which it made up 97% of the existing supply, 100% of the incoming supply and 99% of planed supply. Moreover, the similar pattern is also seen in the housing transaction in Bandar Kuala Lumpur. The volume of housing transaction in the first half of 2020 is also mostly comprised of stratified properties which only 10% of transaction is from the landed property. Among the stratified property types, the highest volume transaction is the condominium with 264 transacted units. Furthermore, as for the market status by the second quarter of 2020 in Bandar Kuala Lumpur, most of the overhang, unsold under construction, and unsold not constructed units are also dominated by stratified property. This shows an indication that there is more demand for stratified property, hence, the supply is dominated of such residential property type. However, the market status also shows a low performance of the stratified property, this may be attributable to the economic downturn in 2020.

3.1 SELECTED ASSESSMENT TOOLS There are 5 different assessment tools considered in the process of appraising and audit for this report. Namely, MurniNet, LEED assessment, Liveability index, DBKL traditional village assessment, and Vista Hamilton Urban Design System. From all the 5 assessment tools, a new customized hybrid of combination of these assessment tools is produced to suit the unique condition of the study area, Kg. Datuk Keramat, as an urban traditional village located in the middle of urbanized area of Klang Valley. Therefore, the following sections explain the justification of why the mentioned assessment tools are selected and considered in the appraisal and audit process of this report.

3.1.1 MURNINETS MURNINets is a short form for the Malaysian Urban-Rural National Indicators Network for Sustainable Development. It was established to measure and evaluate the sustainability of a city and also the nearby area through using urban indicators. PLANMalaysia has conducted a study on urban sustainability indicators starting in 1998 and the first set of urban sustainability indicators was provided in 2002 known as the Malaysia Urban Indicators Network that involves 11 key sectors comprising of 56 urban sustainability indicators. These indicators were later changed to align with the requirements of National policies based on their implementation until 2010, the indicators used at that time were reduced to 40 indicators. From 2012 to 2016, MURNInets has widely been used as a tool to measure sustainability of cities in Malaysia.

MURNINets is then improvised and known as MURNINets 2.0 in 2017, which includes 6 dimensions, 22 themes and 43 indicators.

Figure 3.1: MURNINets logo Source: murninetsv2.planmalaysia.gov.my

MURNINets is chosen as the basis for the scoring method for the assessment as the scoring method use in MURNINets is suitable for Malaysian’s context for both urban and rural developments. The components extracted from the MURNINets are matched with the existing condition of the study area, Kampung Datuk Keramat, and the criteria and scoring methodology are altered to match the suitability to the study area. The dimensions that are extracted from MURNINets are muchly related to the physical study of the area – includes land use, commercial, housing, public facilities, open spaces and infrastructure and utilities -,demographic and social study, transportation and traffic study and also environmental study. Figure 3.2 below shows the summarised components of MURNINets.

The MURNINets have four main objectives which consists of:-

1

Assessing the level of achievement for urban-rural sustainability

2

Identify the strengths and weaknesses of local authorities according to the indicators.

3

Suggesting opportunities and improvements to increase the sustainability level for any urban or rural area

4

Monitoring the implementation of identified action plans.

3.1.2 LEED-ND RATING SYSTEM

3.1.3 LIVABILITY INDEX

LEED-ND stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighbourhood Development, is an environmental standard program which evaluates and certified green developments across the United States of America. The program is designed to reflect the smart, sustainable and well-designed neighbourhood. The standards in LEEDND rating system can be categorised into three basic sections. Firstly, Smart Location and Linkage (SLL) identified the optimality of a neighbourhood based on its location and connectivity. Secondly, Neighbourhood Pattern and Design (NPD) (also refer as new urbanism) identified the components of walkability, diverse and compact land uses, high-quality public space and community participation in design.

Lastly, Green Infrastructure and Buildings (GIB) incorporates energy and water efficiency, reusing older buildings, recycling materials, reducing stormwater runoff and eliminating pollution resources.

A livability index is a table that ranks a set of cities, regions, or nations according to a defined combination of quantitative and qualitative properties. The most prominent of these are developed and produced by commercial interests. The properties are usually based on data from subjective surveys of, for example, “life satisfaction,” “well-being,” or “happiness,” as well as on data yielding more objective determinants of “quality of life,” such as assessments based on public statistics, “economic climate,” “political stability,” or “public services.”

LEED-ND rating system is selected because it considers a neighbourhood as a place with unique character and function and where people can live, work, shop and interact with neighbours. This program considers a sustainable neighbourhood where it has high level of walkability, a sense of place, social cohesion and stability. Therefore, the focus on new urbanism at a neighbourhood level reflected in this program is seen to be applicable to the assessments of sustainability in Kg. Datuk Keramat as an urban village where social cohesion is important to maintain the “village atmosphere” of the neighbourhood.

This livability index was being adopted from the AARP Public Policy Institute, United State, as an indicator of this assessment. This is because, taking a holistic approach to assessing community livability in Kampung Datuk Keramat is important, because every place has unique strengths. In Kampung Datuk Keramat, the Livability Index that being measured are housing, neighborhood and transportation. For each category, the Index evaluates current conditions using a diverse set of metric indicators and considers policies and programs that can enhance community livability over time.

3.1.4 DBKL TRADITIONAL VILLAGE ASSESSMENT

3.1.5 VISTA HAMILTON URBAN DESIGN ASSESSMENT

According to Draft Structure Plan Kuala Lumpur 2040 by DBKL, urban traditional Malay village is defined as a village that is situated in urban area, has complete infrastructure and utilities, advanced but still maintaining a living Malay cultures, maintains the Malay architecture and design as well as having a sustainable environment-conscious quality.

This assessment outlines Hamilton city in Canada expectations for better designed environments. It highlights the key urban design principles considered fundamental to Hamilton’s development as a dynamic, prosperous, memorable and sustainable city. The design elements addressed in this guide combine international best practice urban design principles with factors considered to be of special importance to the city of Hamilton and its surrounding environment. The Design Guide also reflects New Zealand’s National Urban Design Protocol.

Furthermore, due to there is no standard of determination for specific village criteria proposed or applied in any previous study or by any agency, thus, this assessment refers to the development study of traditional village in Penang 2019 which suggested village valuable inheritance criteria as a standard determination of a traditional village.

In which, only necessary criteria will be adjusted to fit with the profile of an urban traditional village in Kuala Lumpur. Therefore, this assessment will focus to four (4) criteria which are seen as appropriate to be adapted. Those 4 criteria are Land Use Activity, House Architecture, Malay Reserved Land and Visual Quality and Attraction. The detail justifications of assessment will be further explained in the Dimension 1 of hybrid assessment on Heritage Identity and Urban Design (Section 3.2.1).

Malay Reserved Land

This instruction is chosen because it offers the way to help and create a well-designed place should look, feel and function. Since Kg. Datuk Keramat is a well-known area since a long time ago, it is important to maintain and improve the town to a better township. However, the indicators from Vista are too wide to be used to appraise Kg. Datuk Keramat. Thus, the instructions are focusing to the suitability of the site.

There are 4 design elements that need to be considered:

Sense of Place

Development should enhance and celebrate township’s s character and reflect the special qualities of the site.

Access

Development should ensure that township is easy to get around, so everyone can access services and facilities

Public Space

The “spaces between buildings” should provide a high quality urban environment for the people to enjoy.

Lifestyle

Places should reflect the diversity and rich lifestyles of its population as well as encourage a vibrant mix of people, ages, uses and activities.

3.2 CUSTOM-HYBRID ASSESSMENT TOOL Previously discussed, a new custom-hybrid assessment tool is produced to suit the unique condition of the study area, Kg. Datuk Keramat, as an urban traditional village located in the middle of urbanized area of Klang Valley. The justifications of why the 5 different assessment tools are selected is already explained in the earlier sections. Therefore, it can be acknowledged that each of the 5 assessment tool have significantly contributed to the designation of this custom-hybrid assessment tool.

MURNInet rating system which includes its structures and scoring system, are used as the foundation in designing of this custom-hybrid assessment tools.

Therefore, the components contained in all 5 assessment tools are filtered, hence, the ones which seem to be applicable to the study area are adopted and the scoring methods are adjusted accordingly with the MURNInet scoring system. Furthermore, it is worth noting that heritage aspect is given more emphasis, thus, all the components of the traditional village criteria assessment by the DBKL are considered.

In this custom-hybrid assessment tool, there are 7 dimensions produced which reflect various important aspects of a matured neighbourhood development.

Dimension 1 on heritage and urban design is significant to ensure the important elements of the study area in terms of traditional village criteria and urban design including heritage are well maintained.

Dimension 2 on optimal land use ensures the minimal impact of urbanization in the study area. Dimension 3 to 6 is significant to ensure the liveability and sustainability of the neighbourhood development.

Lastly, Dimension 7 ensures the environmental health and quality of the neighbourhood. Therefore, all the 7 Dimensions indicates each own importance, hence, the selected components (themes and instructions) are structured and justified in the next following sections.

4.1.2 Urban Design Every town has its unique identity that need to be revitalized for the identity to be maintained. The town revitalization needs a very strong cooperation between the residents and also the responsible authority to achieve a successful urban design. This is to ensure the community in the old town get used to the new needs while preserving the cultural and historical values.

In this sector, it will be focused on analyzing the existing urban design elements such as landmark, nodes, path, edges and district, identify the related issues.

• Masjid Al-Akram It is located near Kg. Datuk Keramat residential area which can ease the residents to access the mosque. One of the facilities that can be found at the mosque are Sekolah Rendah Agama Al-Akram. This area can be busy when there is activity held by the mosque and children going to school.

Moreover, the mosque can accommodate 3,000 people. The activities organized always involve various groups such as men, women and even children (refer to the Figure 4.1.5).

A. The Existing Urban Design Elements a. Nodes Node is a point or strategic spot which are the focal point in a city. In general, node is defined as a place where the people gathering at this point. It can be a concentration or a junction. Node can be considered as one of the urban design elements that can give the city image-ability or a strong image. This is because the point are the places of action, where particular social interaction take place.

• Mini UTC Keramat It is located at Jalan Datuk Keramat and can be seen easily whoever passed the road.

It also has unique and special visual feature that can be identified from a particular distance. The characteristics of landmark are the clarity of its general form, difference in form, shape and height from its surroundings which can make them contrast to the others development around them.

• Pasar Keramat Pasar Keramat, which has been operating for almost 40 years is definitely an attraction for the residents in Kg. Datuk Keramat and other people to visit the market. It is located at the junction of Jalan Datuk Keramat and Lorong Keramat Dalam 8. Although the market had been moved to another place not far from there, the residents still against the relocation.

c. Path This element needs to be structured in planning design. This is because people observe the town or city by moving through it. A good path is when containing significant building and facades, concentration of uses and a clear path can lead to a clear city.

By analysing the path of the study area, the street pattern of Kg. Datuk Keramat is a grid network of streets (Refer to Plan 4.1.2). This pattern allows for easy navigation and provides a block pattern that will improve connectivity, which also encourages alternative transportation modes to the car.

Pedestrian walkways play a vital role for pedestrian movement and access, enhance connectivity and promote walking. The clear path ensures the pedestrians to have a safe and adequate place to walk .

However, there are some pedestrian walkway are very uncomfortable to walk because of the trees and lack of maintenance.

There are varieties of experience feelings by the road users especially around Pasar Keramat. This is due to certain conditions on the route such as the narrowness of the road or uneven road surfaces.

C. Housing condition The section of analysis will comprise the condition of the houses in Kampung Datuk Keramat. The measurement of the housing condition is made based on the physical appearances of the buildings and also the structure of the houses based on the Google Map observation.

Table 4.18 shows the condition of the housing on Zone A & B. The condition of most of the house in Kampung Datuk Keramat is good except for a number of informal houses. This is presumably due to the design, structure and materials choice. For example, almost all of the detached houses are in a good condition because it can be seen that the design looks modern with the material used are mostly bricks which shows that the age of the building is relatively low compared to that of the informal houses.

Housing condition can be classified into three parts which are good, moderate and bad. The measurement of the housing condition is made based on the physical appearances and structure of the houses from the Google Map observation.

In conclusion, most of the landed houses in Kg. Datuk Keramat obviously does not comply to the planning guideline set by the local authority. This is because the residential area there is an old settlement, which was established long before the planning guideline was enforced. Hence, there is no specific ways to assess the compliancy as there is no guideline for an old settlement. However, on the other hand, the strata housing in Kg. Datuk Keramat is a relatively new development which took place in recent years. This is why the strata housing in Kg. Datuk Keramat checked all the boxes for compliancy to the guidelines.

D. Drainage and Irrigation The drainage and irrigation system works to bring the amount of surface water and domestic wastewater to safe places such as lakes, ponds, rivers, or seas without affecting other structure such as road condition and soil structure.

Bunus Regional Sewage Treatment Plant is the in Kg. Datuk Keramat is built Bina Puri and is conducted by Indah Water Konsortium (IWK) Sdn. Bhd. They also have responsibility in cleaning, checking, monitoring and maintaining the sewerage system from time to time to keep maintaining a good service management. In Kg. Datuk Keramat, all the houses are receiving the sewage treatment system services.

Design Capacity

Basically, there are two types of drainage system which are major and minor drainage. Major drainage can be referred such as river or monsoon drain while minor drainage for instance half round drainage, roadside drainage and many more.

Major drainage in the study area referred to the water bodies in Kg. Datuk Keramat which is Klang river and monsoon drain. The Klang river which flows through Kuala Lumpur and Selangor in Malaysia and eventually flows into the Straits of Malacca. Refer to Plan 4.1.8 which shows the flow of all the drainage.

However, there are some doubts on whether it is okay for not having certain types of facilities such as hospital, clinics, fire station, public library and secondary schools in Kg. Datuk Keramat to ensure the residents can have a full access to all ranges of services and facilities without having to depend on surrounding neighbourhoods. In addition, the accessibility to the public facilities in Kg.

REMARKS

LU2 – P2 Public Open Space Provision The scoring for this assessment will be study by calculate for every 1000 people, how many hectares of open space will be provided. Those scoring will be in three categories: o More than 2 hectares for 1000 people = 3 scores o 1.5 to 1.9 hectare for 1000 people = 2 scores o Less than 1.4 hectare for 1000 people = 1 score

Public open space is measured in accordance with the decision of the 5th MPFN meeting on 6 October 2005 which aims to provide 2 hectares of public open space for every 1,000 residents towards achieving developed country status by 2020. This criterion also important to check whether Kampung Datuk Keramat still maintain their traditional village identities.

E. Sub – Sectoral Conclusion Summary that can be made from Open Space and Recreation part is that the provision of open space in Kampung Datuk Keramat is not enough with the current populations. Even though the Neighborhood park already sufficient enough for the population there, but the distance of it far from the residential area especially on the west part of the neighborhood which are more than 800 meters. It can be proved by the questionnaire survey answer from the people of the site study area where majority of them are on the average level of satisfaction for the number of open spaces provided. The playground and playlot that are nearby to the neighborhood also are not enough for the population catchment based on the PlanMalaysia guidelines.

4.3.1 ROAD NETWORK The analysis of road network considers 2 categories of network, namely, intra-regional and inter-regional connectivity. The two categories are analyzed by identifying the road hierarchical functions of the road networks. Furthermore, analysis on road geometry is also conducted to identify the efficiency of the road design in delivering its function as a network in terms of.

It also serves as a local road for each residential unit.

A. Road Hierarchy And Intra-Regional Connectivity The road networks can be categorized into different hierarchy according to their functions. Refer to Table 4.3.1 and Plan 4.3.1, Kg. Datuk Keramat mostly consist of residential areas, hence, the road networks available in the study area are under the category of collector road which functions to connect between residential units and other land uses in the neighborhood as well as local road which is the service road for each residential units. Meanwhile, the highway available which is AKLEH, with the roadway only passes through the study area but it is still accessible from Jalan Jelatek through Jln. Datuk Keramat.

Thereof, in terms of intra-regional connectivity, the analysis is conducted by identifying the pattern of the road networks within the study area according to the hierarchical function categories. Thus, it is identified that the study area is intra-connected by primary and small collector roads as the district networks, and local road including cul-desac as the road supports.

Primary collector road such as Jln. Datuk Keramat and Jln. Keramat serve a connectivity of the study area with arterial road which is Jln. Jelatek that spans to the surrounding developments. Meanwhile, small collector road is considered as an intermediate road that serves to connects the primary collector road with the local road (including culde-sac). For instance, Jalan Keramat, connects Jln. Datuk Keramat as the primary collector road with the series of Lorong Kiri as the cul-desac. Another example is Jln. Keramat Hujung as the small collector road provides connectivity between Jln. Keramat Dalam as the primary collector road with local roads such as Jln. Sudang, Jln. Pawang, Jln. Nujum, and Jln. Bumoh at the northern side of the study area.

B. Inter-Regional Connectivity Identifying the inter-regional connectivity is important to ensure the study area, Kg. Datuk Keramat, is well connected with road networks to its surrounding as well as to other regions. In Kg. Datuk Keramat, there are 2 roadways of different hierarchy that serves the study area a connectivity with outer region. Firstly, Ampang Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH) is an intra-urban highway (Kuala Lumpur) developed as a solution to the traffic congestion along Jalan Ampang. It extends for 7.9 km length from Jalan Sultan Ismail in the KL city center to Taman Ampang Utama in Ampang. The highways are a 3-lane carriageway from Jalan Sultan Ismail to Jalan Lingkaran Tengah and 2 lanes from thereof to Jalan Ampang. The highway has been successful to cater the needs of urban drivers commuting to and from work.

Furthermore, there is a total of 7 interchanges, which interchange that is accessible from Kg. Datuk Keramat, is Jalan Jelatek interchange (Exit 1203). Refer to Figure 4.3.1 it shows that Kg. Datuk Keramat is well served with road networks that provide connectivity to the city center of Kuala Lumpur and Ampang Utama. Moreover, Jalan Jelatek as an arterial road spans from Jalan Ampang to Wangsa Maju which is accessible to Kg. Datuk Keramat through the junctions of Jalan Datuk Keramat. This roadway provides connectivity of the study area which not only limited to Ampang and Wangsa Majus, but the road also links to Taman Keramat in Selangor. Therefore, it is concluded that the study area is well-served with road networks which provide accessibility and connectivity to the surrounding development and other regions such as the Kuala Lumpur city center, Ampang area, Taman Keramat and Wangsa Maju.

C. Road Geometric

Table 4.3.2: Road Geometric

The analysis is conducted by identifying the cross-sectional design of the road in terms of the road width. This analysis is only limited to the road network available within the study area with the hierarchical function as a primary collector road, small collector road, and local road as well as cul-desac. However, due to the limitation in obtaining the data, the analysis is made based on the measurement using the web-mapping through desktop study, thus, the number obtained is not précised.

First of all, It is worth noting that the study area, Kg. Datuk Keramat is an older urban traditional village which the development started since the early settlement of this area. Therefore, the area has its unique condition in terms of the roadways. Refer to Table 4.3.2, it can be noticed that the width of the roadways is not consistent or do not have the standard size according to each hierarchical category. For instance, along Jln. Persiaran Gurney as a primary collector road, there is a part of the road which has 13 m width that is situated near at the junction, while the other parts of the road thereof have the width only 7 m (Figure 4.3.3). This condition of bigger road width at the junction is to accommodate more volume and to reduce the traffic congestion. However, the expansion of the road width along the other road extensions might not be possible due to the unavailability of enough space and the close proximity of the roadway to the walkway and/or to the adjacent buildings. Moreover, for the local road, the smallest width is at 4.5 m, meanwhile for cul-de-sac is at 3.4 m.

Therefore, it can be concluded that Kg. Datuk Keramat as an urban village neighborhood still shows the typical narrow road condition of a village, hence, due to the unavailability of more space, road expansion is not possible.

4.3.2 TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Traffic management is a combination of measures that control the traffic capacity and ensure the security, safety and reliability of the overall road transport system. Traffic management measures included in this section are traffic circulation, road intersection, traffic volume and capacity, traffic calming measure and road facilities.

A. Traffic Circulation Refer to Table 4.3.3. Generally, the traffic circulation in most of the roadways in Kg. Datuk Keramat are 2 ways circulation. As most of the roadways are categorized as local roads which mainly serve for residential area, thus, most of the roadways are 2 lanes to cater the 2 ways traffic circulation. However, only Jalan Keramat Dalam has the oneway circulation as this roadway serves for multiple land uses of busy activities such as the commercial area of Pasar Keramat as well as the school and park areas. Furthermore, it is identified that a traffic circulation regulation based on hourly period is implemented along Jln. Datuk Keramat (from pasar keramat area on the east to mini UTC) which this certain route is for one-way circulation from 6:00 AM to 9:30 AM but the time thereof, it is for 2 ways circulation. This management is implemented to minimize the traffic congestion in the morning resulted from the busy morning activity of the Pasar Keramat as well as the school area (Refer to Figure 4.3.4 and Plan 4.3.2).

B. Road Intersection Road intersection is a junction where two or more roadways or street cross at the same level. The analysis of road intersection is based on the category and the types of traffic management implemented.

In Kg. Datuk Keramat, it is identified that there are 2 categories of intersection which are 3-way intersections (T-junction) and 4-way intersections (Refer to Table 4.3.4 for the list of intersections based on category and types). Furthermore, according to the types of traffic control implemented at the intersections, there are 2 types identified, namely; signalized intersection and unsignalized intersection. Signalized intersection available in the study area is the common use of traffic light, there are 2 of T-Junction and 2 of 4-ways intersections that have traffic light as the traffic control. Meanwhile, the identified unsignalized intersections is the implementation of lane design as the traffic control at most of the intersections in the study area. This traffic control system is the make use of physical design to regulate the traffic at the intersections, the common types of lane design identified in the study area is the box junctions which generally prohibit the road users to entry to the intersection unless the exit is clear (refer to Figure 4.3.5).

C. Traffic Flow And Level of Service Traffic flow is analyzed to understand the traffic condition in Kg. Datuk Keramat and to ensure the efficient traffic movement and the minimal traffic congestion problem. The measurement of traffic flow is conducted using the qualitative measure of Level of Service (LOS) which is the measure of quality of flow that take into account multiple factors such as speed, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions and comfort. However, this analysis only considers the traffic flow quality in terms of speed per hour due to the data limitation. The analysis is based on the traffic conditions during the weekday and weekend (At certain times) in Kg. Datuk Keramat. Refer to Table 4.3.6 on traffic flow condition, the data shows that the traffic flow only indicates the LOS A and C. In which, LOS A is defined as free flow and no traffic delays and LOS C indicates a stable flow and medium amount of traffic, hence, Kg. Datuk Keramat does not experience a severe traffic congestion. However this data was obtained during CMCO where people’s movement are restricted, thus, the data can’t generalize the traffic condition of the normal days in the study area. Furthermore, it is identified the busiest traffic condition in Kg. Datuk Keramat is at 12PM and 8PM. From the overall data, the analysis shows that the busiest road is Jln Bukit Keramat, meanwhile Jln Datuk Keramat and Jln. Keramat Dalam which serve for multiple land uses shows a better traffic, this shows that the implementation of one-way circulation can cater traffic congestions. Lastly, it is identified that the busiest junction is Jln Sudang-Jln Bukit Keramat intersection which is the only road access point to Kg. Datuk Keramat from the northern area.

Weekend Traffic 12:00 PM The figures show the traffic condition in Kg. Datuk Keramat during busy hours in the weekday and weekend. The traffic amount of the junctions in Pasar area is higher during the noon time, at 12 PM, of both weekday and weekend. The Pasar area mainly consist of commercial and public facilities land uses, therefore, the volume of commercial activity is probably highest during the lunch time and the location of school near the junction may even worsens the traffic condition.

Moreover, during the nighttime, at 8PM, of both weekday and weekend. The intersections in the area of Bukit Keramat shows a higher amount of traffic. This is much probably due to the high-rise development in the particular area which results in higher density compare to the other areas. Therefore, traffic condition is worse during the night urban commute time and unable to cope with the traffic demand of the high-density area.

D. Traffic Calming Measure

Table 4.3.7: Road Speed Bump Number

Traffic calming is widely known to reduce speed and to help decrease the road injuries and fatalities. Implementing traffic calming measure in Kg. Datuk Keramat is undoubtedly important because the area mostly consists of residential area. It is identified that there are 2 types of traffic calming measure being implemented in Kg. Datuk Keramat which are speed bump and sign as well as the unique method of red color road marking. a. Speed Hump and Speed Sign Speed hump is the most common technique of traffic calming in Malaysia. Speed humps combined with speed sign can slow traffic in residential area, school zones and other similar locations. In Kg. Datuk Keramat, it is estimated that there are a total of 34 speed humps provided along the major roads (Table 4.3.7). The street with the highest number of speed humps is Jln. Keramat and Jln. Datuk Keramat, the two streets are categorized as collector roads which connect multiple land uses including residential with busier land uses such as commercial.

Meanwhile the third street with the most speed humps is Jln. Keramat Hujung at the northern side of the site area which has terrains and elevations. Therefore, the high volume of speed humps on the three roads is justifiable due to the road functions as well as the elevation condition. Furthermore, all the road humps are provided with speed sign and it is identified that the speed limit in Kg. Datuk Keramat is 35 km/h which is the standard speed limit in residential area.

b. Red Color Road Marking This traffic calming measure is indeed less commonly practiced in Malaysian cities. The technique of red color marking aims to tell the road users to slow down as the color tends to be centric and eye-catching to the driver’s sights. Refer to Figure 4.3.9, it can also be seen that the material used is also different, the texture of the pavement that differs from regular asphalt will be easily noticeable by the road users. This traffic calming measure is found along Jln. Persiaran Gurney, near the building entrance which aims to slow the speed and prevent any possible road crashes (refer to Plan 4.3.3).

E. Road Facilities

b. Street Lights

Road facility is another important component in traffic management. It smooths the traffic and prevent possible road crashes. It also functions to assist the road users in finding their way. There are various types of road facilities, there are two highlighted road facilities available in Kg. Datuk Keramat which are traffic signs and streetlights.

Traffic lights are another important features in terms of traffic facilities, it plays a significant role as a source of public lighting during the dark condition such as at night, dawn or during the dark weather conditions. It not only prevents from road crashes, but it also functions as security to prevent crimes. From the virtual site visit conducted through the use of web mapping platform, it is identified that most the roads are provided with sufficient amount of streetlights.

a. Traffic Signs Traffic sign is commonly provided at the side of or elevated above the roads to give information to road users in which it also enhances the traffic safety. Some of the available traffic signs identified in Kg. Datuk Keramat is shown in Figure 4.3.10. The first signs describes the road ahead is curving to the right; hence, road users will be able to understand the road condition and be more watchful. The second picture is situated around the LRT station area, such traffic signs describe the area as a pedestrian zone, it aims to tell the road users to be more careful when driving in this zone and to ensure the safety of the pedestrians.

4.3.3 PEDESTRIAN NETWORK Provision of pedestrian walkway is important to support active mobility of the residents in a neighborhood. Pedestrian walkway in Kg. Datuk Keramat is mostly provided along the major roads which connect different type of land uses within the site area (Plan 4.3.4). However, the pedestrian walkway is not provided along most of the local road as well as the cul-de-sacs, this might be due to the lack of space because of the narrow width of the roadways The analysis of the pedestrian network is based on the existing condition in term of one or two sides walkway, and walkway facilities such as shelter and trees for shading, crosswalk and pedestrian bridge for crossing facilities, and inclusive facilities for the disabled.

Refer to Table 4.3.8 It is identified that most of the major roads in Kg. Datuk Keramat is under the 2 sides category which extends almost 4 km in length. This means that pedestrians can safely walk on both sides of the road. However, the connection between the walkways segregated at the road intersections is not emphasized in the site as there is a lack of crosswalk facilities in which only 2 of the crossing facilities are provided and are not located at the road intersections. Another obstacle to the walkway connections is also identified due to the commercial activities and illegal parking that take place on the walkway. This indicates the network of the pedestrian walkway is not well connected and road injuries among the pedestrian are highly possible to occur.

Furthermore, trees are identified along 25% of the total length of the walkway which is at Jln. Keramat Dalam, Jln. Datuk Keramat, Jln. Persiaran Gurney and Jln. Bukit Keramat. Meanwhile, shelter as structured shading facilities is only found in front of the school area and LRT station area. Furthermore, in terms of walkway facilities for the disabled group, only Jln Padang Tembak is identified to have an inclusive design which is the existing tactile paving, it shows that inclusivity is not considered enough in designing of the walkway provision in Kg. Datuk Keramat.

B. Existing Condition a. LRT Transit Stations In order to serve a more comprehensive public transit service, the provision of LRT stations shall be provided with facilities that promotes the connectivity of people’s mobility. Refer to the Table 4.3.10, it shows the facility provided in the three LRT station serving Kg. Datuk Keramat. The facilities considered are the provision of parking facilities and availability of other public transport connection. The provision of parking facilities will promote the mobility system of “Park and Ride” in which the users who drive their own private vehicles can leave their vehicles at the LRT station and to continue their journey using the public transport. The availability of other public transit such as public buses is to ensure the mobility of public transport users are well served and connected.

In Kg. Datuk Keramat, LRT Damai station is provided with a total of 1,741 parking bays for both cars and motorcycles, but it does not serve any other mode of public transit. Meanwhile, for Dato’ Keramat station serves the connection with other mode of public transit which are 4 types of public buses, but it does not come with parking facilities. Meanwhile, for Jelatek station, it has both of facilities with a total of 292 parking bays and serving one public buses.

Therefore, due to the close locations of Damai and Dato’ Keramat, both serves for different purposes for a more comprehensive public transit systems.

Furthermore, it is important to identify the reachability to the LRT stations from the neighborhood, Kg. Datuk Keramat, especially in terms of the walkability.

Therefore, a study of isochrone maps is conducted, the study considers the time threshold of walking and the availability of walking route. By definition, isochrone map comprises of line which connects points at which something can arrive at the same time. In this case the range of 7 minutes is selected as the time threshold because it is commonly the walk time for 400 m – 500 m distance (walking distance).

Refer to Figure 4.3.17, the isochrone map is drawn from three points of each LRT stations. Overall, almost the entire area of Kg. Datuk Keramat is within the coverage of the walkable catchment area to the three LRT stations with only the northern sides are not covered. Furthermore, by identifying the reachability of each stations, it can be seen that LRT Dato’ Keramat and LRT Jelatek have the catchment area of 0.5 km2 with the radius up to around 400 m, it means that within up to 400 meters from any points, it takes 7 minutes for people to walk. On the other hand, for LRT Damai station shows the coverage of only serving the site area and it has less catchment area which is 0.33 km with radius up to 324 m which means it takes 7 minutes just to walk for 324 m to LRT Damai Station. Hence, it is identified that the three LRT stations are still reachable trough walking from the site area (also refer to Plan 4.3.5 showing the connection of walkway to public transits). Furthermore, facilities to promote the connectivity of pedestrian is also available through the provision of overhead crossing bridge which available at the LRT Damai Station connecting with UTC Keramat and LRT Jelatek station connecting with Kg. Datuk Keramat (Refer to Figure 4.3.18 and Plan 4.3.5)

b. Bus Stop Identifying the distribution and condition of bus stops in Kg. Datuk Keramat is important to ensure the equal access to bus transit system, the good quality of existing condition in terms of users’ physical comforts as well as the functionality as the bus stop itself.

In Kg. Datuk Keramat, the distribution of bus stops is adequate, there are total of 12 bus stops distributed across the neighborhood which serves for variety of available bus routes (Refer to Plan 4.3.5 for distribution plan). All of the bus stops are located along the major roads of Kg. Datuk Keramat and serves for different land uses. However, the current condition of bus stops in terms of the facilities provided are vary. Refer to Table 4.3.12, the bus stop with the fullest facilities is provided with shelter, seats, information display and bus stop road marking (Figure 4.3.19). Shelter and seats provide comfort for the users and protecting them from climatic condition, the information board provides information of the bus services such as the destinations, routes and bus frequency, and bus stop road marking restricts other road users from stopping. Furthermore, 6 of 12 bus stops have the fullest facilities which mostly are located at busy and new development areas, meanwhile there are 3 bus stops come with only information board, this is probably due to the location is less busy and/or serving for only one bus route (Figure 4.3.19).

The analysis of isochrone mapping is also conducted to measure the catchment area of walking distance for the existing bus stop within Kg. Datuk Keramat. The same indicator of 7 minutes time threshold is selected. However, only some bus stops are included in the map as the location of some bus stops are closed to each other.

Refer to Table 4.3.13 and Figure 4.3.20, overall, almost the entire area of Kg. Datuk Keramat is within the coverage of the walkable catchment area to the bus stops, only piece of area on the southern and northern sides are not covered. Moreover, it is identified that the catchment areas of each bus stops are all above 400 m, which for instance, within 460-meter distance to the bus stop of Pangsa Murni, it takes 7 minutes for pedestrian to walk hence It will take shorter time to walk for less than 400 meters from the bus stops. This describes the high accessibility of pedestrian to the bus stops; this is also justified by the provision of walkway along the major roads within the neighborhood that connects the bus stops to other land uses (Plan 4.3.5).

4.3.5 MODE OF TRANSPORT The analysis of mode of transport seeks to identify the preferences of transportation mode among the people in Kg. Datuk Keramat in terms of daily commuting. There are three categories considered which are private motorized transport, taxi or e-hailing, public transit and active mobility.

Private Motorized Transport This category is the use of private or individual vehicles as the commuting mode. The advantages of this mode may include the freedom and flexibility in deciding when to commute and which route to take. However, the disadvantage would be the fuel cost burden, and the chance to face traffic congestion. The private motorized transport considered in this analysis is car and motorcycle.

Public Transit Public transit as the transportation mode is the use of public transportation for commuting. It is already widely acknowledged that public transport is more environmentally friendly and could reduce traffic congestion. Furthermore, the advantage from the individual passengers would be the more safety and faster transport mode.

However, the inflexibility of commuting would be the disadvantage.

The public transit in this analysis refers to bus and LRT.

Taxi or E-hailing Nowadays, taxi, especially, e-hailing has been a popular option of transportation due to its more convenient and faster booking process. It provides the advantages of private transport in terms of privacy and the flexibility, but it is accessible by public. Certainly, the cost is higher compared to public transit. The disadvantage would be the chance of facing traffic congestion.

The analysis of the transportation mode among the people in Kg. Datuk Keramat is conducted through questionnaire survey with a total of 30 respondents. The 30 respondents were asked how they commute to work or school daily. Refer to Chart 4.3.1, it can be identified that 73% of the respondents commute to work using their private vehicle, it is followed by public transit at 13% meanwhile for taxi/e-hailing and active mobility is 6.6% each.

The preference on private transport as the mode of commuting is highest due to its conveniency and flexibility. The great intra- and interregion connectivity of the study area ease the movement of the people using individual motorized transport. As for public transport, the less preference on this transportation mode among the respondents are due to the poor system of bus service such as the uncertainty of the schedule and the delays of the bus arrival, some respondents also added that there are too many passengers and one bus sometimes could not fit the passengers at a time therefore they had to wait for the next turn, this has led to the lesser interest in this mode of transportation. This indicates that the bus service in Kg. Datuk Keramat may not be able to cope with the current demand. Lastly, it is worth noting that the result of this questionnaire survey should not be generalizes to the whole study area as it just represents the small portion of the total population.

Mode of Transport 6.60% 6.60% 13.30% Private Transport Public Transit

Active Mobility Active transportation is the transport of people using non-motorized transport or based on human physical activity such as walking and cycling. This transport mode is considered as the most sustainable, there is no carbon dioxide release from such activity.

4.3.6 PARKING SPACE The analysis on parking space seeks to identify the efficiency of current parking space provision in the development of the study area. It is important to understand the current condition of the parking space provision whether it is sufficient to cater the parking demand or it has led to any issue. Furthermore, nowadays, the idea of new urbanism where active mobility is encouraged, and minimal provision of on surface parking provision. Hence, the analysis on the percentage of parking area of the built-up area is conducted to identify whether the development has followed the sustainability standard.

A. Parking Category Generally, there are two categories of parking; on-street parking and offstreet parking. On-street parking is simply defined as parking space provided on the side of the road which uses some part of the road reserve for parking. Roadside parking space could be paved or unpaved, marked or unmarked, and regulated or unregulated. There are 3 types of on-street parking; right-angle parking, parallel parking and herring bone parking (Figure 4.3.21). On the other hand, off-street parking is defined as parking space other than on the roadside which can be inside a building or provided with a specific site area.

The most common types of on-street parking identified in Kg. Datuk Keramat, especially in commercial areas, are parallel and herring borne parking. Refer to Figure 4.3.22, it was identified that some of the onstreet parking are both marked and unmarked. However, the on-street parking in Kg. Datuk Keramat is seemed to cause traffic congestion, most of the roadways are too narrow and space of this road reserve is also used for parking space, thus there is a minimum space left for the traffic lane.

For instance, the on-street parking in the area of pasar Keramat with the busyness of commercial activity, causes a more congested traffic of the roadways thereof. The on-street parking is also found around the landed residential area. The number of on-street parking identified is probably due to the high demand of parking among the residents and the inadequate of vacant area for parking space. Furthermore, the off-street parking in Kg. Datuk Keramat is mostly provided for certain development other than landed residential and commercial such as the high-rise residential, public facilities and institution development, as well as parking space at Taman Tasik (open space).

B. Parking Surface Area The analysis on the total surface of parking area is conducted for the sustainability assessment (in section 4.3.3), to identify the performance of Kg. Datuk Keramat in reducing private vehicles dependency and to encourage the use of public transportation and active mobility by minimizing the provision of surface parking area. First of all, it is worth mentioning that the analysis is based on the selected development of non-residential with off-street parking provision, because the parking requirement for residential area might diverse according to the types of residential development. Furthermore the data is measured using Google map tools, hence, the data obtained is not as accurate in representing the total parking area of each development . The analysis is conducted by calculating the percentage of the total parking area from the total built up area of each development, and the total area of all selected development is also calculated.

Refer to Table 4.3.14 and Figure 4.3.23, the selected development is based on land uses of commercial, institution and public facilities. It is identified that the school institutions have the smallest percentage of surface parking area which the parking area of Sekolah Datok Keramat 1 is 19% of the total built up area and for Sekolah Rendah Agama Al-Alusi is only 14.5% of the built-up area. The small percentage of parking area in school institutions is because it has less requirement compared to commercial development, such as AZ land and property which is an office building with the total parking area larger than the built-up area, it’s much probably due to the higher demand of parking among the adult workers.

From the 9 selected developments within Kg. Datuk Keramat, the total parking area of all the developments is 42% of the total built-up area. It indicates that there is a high volume of parking provision in the study area, the number even excludes the on-street parking, the parking of residential developments and parking at transit stations which to cope with the estimated high demand of parking space provision.

4.3.7 GUIDELINE COMPLIANCE

Cross Section Jln. Datuk Keramat – Primary Collector Road

Assessment of guideline compliancy is conducted to identify the current performance of Kampung Datuk Keramat in terms of transportation networks with the standard planning guideline. The planning guideline referred in this assessment is residential guideline and parking guideline by the Federal Department of Town and Country Planning (JPBD) as the specific guideline for Kuala Lumpur is not available. The assessment encompasses 2 aspects for compliancy analysis which are the hierarchy and road standards, and provision of parking standards.

A. Hierarchy and Road Standards

Incompliance Standard Guideline for Primary Collector Road

The compliancy of hierarchy and road standards is conducted by making a comparison of the road cross-section and the road geometric between the existing condition of the roadways in Kg. Datuk Keramat with the standard provision in the guidelines. The analysis is conducted according to the hierarchy road category. As for the cross-section, only the selected street of each hierarchy category is used as the samples of this analysis.

Refer to Figure 4.3.24 showing the cross section of selected street for compliancy. Jalan Datuk Keramat of 13 m road width is selected to represent the primary local road and Cangkat Keramat Hujung represents the local road. Due to the diverse width of the roadways in the study area, the selection was based on the most compliance with the guideline in terms of the road width. Refer to Table 4.3.15 It is identified that none of the primary collector road compliances with the guideline provisions. It can be seen in the cross section of Jalan Datuk Keramat, although the road width has complied with the guideline, which is at 13 meter with 4 lanes, however there is an absence of median to separate the 2 directions. The location of the utility and the pedestrian walkway do not comply with the guideline standards. Similarly, as for the local road, refer to the cross section of Cangkat Keramat Hujung, the road width complies with the standard which is at 5.5 meter, however, there is no provision of pedestrian walkway along that particular local road, the space between the roadway and the housing building is used for utility and swales. However, for the small collector road, most of the street is compliance but solely considering the road width and the walkway provision. The status of incompliance of the roadways with the guideline standards in Kampung Datuk Keramat is much probably due to the narrow road and no more enough space for the road upgrade.

B. Parking Space Standard Furthermore, the compliancy of parking space is conducted by comparing the layout design of on-street parking of the existing condition in Kg. Datuk Keramat with the standard provision in the guidelines. The analysis is conducted by considering the on-street parking category. The sampling of the street for analysis is based on the one way and two ways category. Refer to Figure 4.3.25. Firstly, as for one-way category, the on-street at Jalan Keramat Dalam (between the Sekolah Datok Keramat 1 and Pasar Keramat) is selected for analysis. It can be identified that the on-street parking in this area fails to comply with the guideline as there is no provision of landscape which separates the parking lot and pedestrian walkway, even on the one side of the street, it is directly adjacent to the commercia building and no walkway provided. Secondly, Jalan Keramat (nearby Masjid Kampong Datok Keramat) is selected for the on-street parking of 2 ways road. The similar issue is also identified which is the absence of landscape to separate between the lanes as well as the parking lot and pedestrian walkway. In conclusion, the road condition in the study area tends to be too narrow which reflects the road in “Kampung”, therefore it cannot adapt to the recent requirement of roadways and parking provision guidelines.

4.3.9 SECTORAL CONCLUSION To summarize, Kg. Datuk Keramat as an urban traditional village in Kuala Lumpur, it is well served with road network and public transit connectivity. The study area still shows the characteristic of a village which the roads tend to be too narrow and are not in compliance with the current standard guideline.

Therefore, traffic congestions are common to occur especially at Pasar Keramat intersections because of the commercial activities and at Bukit Keramat intersections due to the high-density development, this even worsen by the presence of on-street parking. In terms of public transit, the study area seems to be integrated with the public transportation system of Kuala Lumpur, where there are 3 LRT Kelana Jaya line stations accessible from study area as well as the variety of bus services. However, even though the major roads are already provided with pedestrian walkway, but the lack of crosswalks at the intersections create a discontinuity of walkway in the study area. The absence of cycling facilities in the study area shows that the lifestyle of this transport mode is not common among the residents. Lastly, the amount of both on-street and off-street parking provision indicates that the study area shows less contribution in the efforts of reducing private vehicle dependency to lower the carbon emission for a more sustainable city.

4.0 APPRAISAL & AUDIT

Figure 4.4.8 and Table 4.4.9 shows the monthly average rainfall in Kampung Datuk Keramat. The rainfall mean peaked in October 2019 where it shows the highest amount of rainfall recorded of 731.50mm and the lowest recorded monthly average rainfall falls in February 2020 with 159.90mm. The high amount of rainfall is associated to the climate change. The rainfall amount is affected by the sea temperature. As climate change increases the surrounding temperature , it also increases the sea temperature. The increment of temperature causes more water to be evaporated and become water vapor –clouds-. And when releasing the heat, it rains. More water vapor creates more clouds and hence induced more amount of rainfall.

The amount of rainfall produced in every month have exceed the normal average rainfall for Kuala Lumpur which is 207.17mm.

B. Topography Topography is the study of the land surface. It lays the underlying foundation of a landscape. For example, topography refers to mountains, valleys, rivers or craters on the surface. Topography also related closely to contour line. Contour line connect points of equal elevation. Reading contours help to interpret height, slope and shape in topographic maps. If contours are close together, the slope is steep. But when the contours are spread apart, means the slope is more gradual. Contour line which is less than 150m is classified as low land, 150-300m is classified as hill land while 300-1000m is classified as highland. As for the study area, the topography that exist consists of several level of which are portrayed in Plan 4.4.2. The highest topography that is identified from the contour lines is 73m which positioned at the eastern north of Kampung Datuk Keramat. The lowest topography identified is 33m.

Referring to Figure 4.4.15, these are the pinpoints of locations showing the existence of topography slopes in the area. The five locations that are pinpointed on the figure consisted of Jalan Keramat Hujung, Persiaran Keramat Hujung, Jalan Bukit Keramat and Lorong Keramat.

PARAMETER

EXPLANATION

Biological Oxygen Demand

Takes the reading based on the amount of organic substances pollutant that are caused by domestic waste and agricultural industry such as rubber and palm oil factories.

Chemical oxygen demand

The concentration of Chemical Oxygen Demand is affected by domestic waste that contain a lot of organic substances.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen

It is produced from livestock waste and used fertilizers that were dumped in the river.

Dissolved Oxygen

The dissolved oxygen (DO) is oxygen that is dissolved in water.

The oxygen dissolves by diffusion from the surrounding air; aeration of water that has tumbled over falls and rapids; and as a waste product of photosynthesis.

Biological (BOD)

pH concentration

The measurement of alkalinity and pH is needed to determine the corrosivity of the water.

Chemical (COD)

Total suspended solid

The total suspended solid is produced by the degradation of the riverbanks and sand mining activities which usually operated in Langat River.

And as for the study, the classification of water parameter for Sungai Klang are extracted from the current data from IRBM report. Table 4.4.17 below shows the water parameter recorded for Sungai Klang.

Flashfloods occurrence seem to be an often issue that occurs in the study area Kampung Datuk Keramat and the latest incident of flashfloods occurrence is dated 17th of November 2020. According to an article wrote in the Malaysia Gazette, it is said that the latest incident of flashfloods was caused by yet an unknown cause. The article also stated that they urge Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur to acknowledge and dig further deeper into the recent occurrence of flashfloods. The flashfloods incident are said to be a common thing within the study area as the occurrence of flashflood has been going on for about 20 years. The main cause of the flashflood is said to be the issues and problem of the local drainage system itself

The landslide occurrence in the study area does not associated with the natural phenomenon. The cause of the landslides and collapsing of buildings is associated with the pumphouse project initiated by Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur in order to tackle the issues of flash flood. The collapsing building is said to be specifically caused by the collection of water underneath the building and causes sediment towards the soil.

The issue was then already taken care by the local authority by ensuring the stability of the soil structure before proceeding on restructuring collapsed building. The project was said to be taken care within 2 – 4 weeks from the date reported.

The acknowledgement of the local authority upon the issue has brought up several resolve and one of the initiatives to tackle the issue on reoccurring flashfloods is that a project of pumphouse was kicked off.

The project with the cost of RM1.4m kicked off in 19 December 2019.

4.5.1. KAMPUNG DATUK KERAMAT HISTORICAL BACKGROUND A. History of Kg. Datuk Keramat

B. Malay Reserved Land

The settlement area in Kg. Datuk Keramat was predicted to exist during 1857 where the area was found to be the main tin mining site in Selangor. In 1957, the population is increasing because of some Malay families in Kampung Baru moved into the area. That’s when the name ‘Kg. Datuk Keramat' have arisen after the name of a grave of a person who is considered sacred by the people there. However, after various nonsense actions by the people there, the grave has already been removed in the earlier of 1990s. Starting from the 1960s, the population increased even more and caused Kg. Datuk Keramat was one of the main squatter areas in Kuala Lumpur in 1971.

Based on a research made by Ani Ahmad, Kg. Datuk Keramat have been declared as Malay Reserved Land in 1957 under the Enactment 3 (1) (F.M.S. Cap. 142). The declaration of this area as MRL was made after council members in an executive meeting at the district office in 1957 agreed that this area turns into MRL. This declaration was also made due to the request of the residents themselves because they wanted to prevent the land in Kg. Datuk Keramat owned by non-Malays.

In Kuala Lumpur Structure Plan 2020, they stated that Kg. Datuk Keramat also was categorized in Malay Reserved Land and traditional village which requires meticulous attention in development planning. In achieving the goal of creating an efficient city, DBKL intends to improve the living environment in traditional villages including Kg. Datuk Keramat into the current of development so that they do not lag behind in this development.

However, the latest information obtained by DBKL during their detailed review on Kuala Lumpur Structure Plan 2040 is Kg. Datuk Keramat never been under the category of Malay Reserved Land. While the Comprehensive Development Plan (gazetted in 1970) was planned, DBKL has identified the dominant Malay residents area and zoning Kampong Bharu and Kg. Datuk Keramat as Malay reserved land but not to the Malay Reserve land ownership.

Furthermore, based on the talk session by DBKL, in terms of land ownership in Kg. Datuk Keramat, it is 100% owned by the Malays. They also said the Land and Mineral Office of Kuala Lumpur has identified the dominant in terms of land ownership by the Malays and so they will try to make the some part of the Kg. Datuk Keramat as Malay Reserve Land.

During this time, Tun Hussein Onn was just appointed as the third prime minister in 1976. He also visited Kg. Datuk Keramat and was welcomed by the villagers.

Based on the Figure 4.5.3 , it is a reflection of the original design of the ‘RIDA’ housing. It is a village and has been organized in an order. That is why Kg. Datuk Keramat today is a well-organized condition compared to other village areas.

However, ‘RIDA’ housing suffers from several disadvantages which is the wooden structure. Although it has only been built for three years, it was found that the wood has rotted and some have caused the position of the house to be tilted due to broken house poles. Therefore, there are various changes that have taken place in the appearance of the house.

In general, traditional villages are always associated with their own identity. But unfortunately, Kg. Datuk Keramat does not have a very strong identity. This can also be due to its location located in the centre of Kuala Lumpur City where its growth is moving rapidly.

• A score is given on the second criterion which is a landmark located in a corner or a prominent site to highlight a community. Landmarks that can be seen is the Keramat Market (Pasar Keramat) which is always visited by locals and also visitors.

• Thus, the development needs to respond considerately to those cultural identity and strengthen the distinctiveness of Kg. Datuk Keramat neighbourhoods.

4.5.5 SECTORAL CONCLUSION Conservation and preservation the heritage are not only to the building, but also to the surrounding area and community. To make a more liveable traditional village, there are four criteria need to be achieved based on the guideline set by DBKL which are land use activities, Malay Reserved Land, traditional house architecture, and the visual quality of the village. However, Kg. Datuk Keramat do not achieved the full criteria. Because it is located in the middle of the thriving city of Kuala Lumpur, possibly kg. Datuk Keramat has also followed the current of development without maintaining their characteristics and identity.

Other than that, the study area has Pasar Keramat which always attracts people from the outside for most of the years to get their daily needs. This can be an advantage and opportunity for the locals to boost their economy. Thus, it is very important to preserve and enhance it to become local and tourist spot. If the community do not take consideration about the Pasar Keramat, then they will lose the opportunities and identity features of Kg, Datuk Keramat

C. Resale Analysis

The transaction prices of the residential properties are analyzed based on the latest property transactions by types. Refer to Table 4.6.2, the landed properties have a smaller transacted sale price per square feet than the stratified properties. For landed properties, Zone B is still at much higher sale price compared to Zone A which is at RM260 per square feet for Zone B and RM112 for Zone A.

Meanwhile for condominium/apartment, Chymes @ Gurney also still has the highest transaction sale price per square feet which is, RM676 this number is twice more than the Gurney Heights at RM374.

The residential property resale is analyzed using Comparative Market Dara approach which is one technique to estimate the market value. It measures sale price of the property over time by assuming there were no other changes to the property. The analysis is conducted based on property types: detached and condominium, by taking 2 transactions of property of different period of time, thus, any variance in price means the changes over time.

A. Traffic Congestion

B. Lower Walkability

In Kg. Datuk Keramat, traffic congestion commonly occurs at the intersections of Pasar area and Bukit Keramat area. The traffic congestion at the intersections of Pasar area usually occurs in the afternoon time, this might be due to the commercial activities is busier during this time, the smaller road width and on-street parking worsen the congestions.

Moreover, for the congestions at intersections of Bukit Keramat Area commonly happens during the evening urban commute time, this is due to the higher densities in this area and the narrow road width. This traffic congestion does not only create the discomforts to the neighborhoods, but it also contributes to the more carbon emissions.

Although the major street within Kg. Datuk Keramat is considered as adequately provided with pedestrian walkway (either one sided or 2sided walkway). However, the walkability is identified to be lower due to several factors; first, the lack of continuity of pedestrian walkway at the intersections which there is no enough provision of crosswalk facilities at the intersections; second, the issue of illegal parking and commercial activities that takes places on the pedestrian walkway, it create discontinuity and discomforts for the pedestrians; and lastly the noninclusive design of walkway which the walkway is not provided considering the OKU groups and this will lead to the inequity.

B. Mismatch of Land Use

C. Lack Of Guidelines On Informal Houses

Based on the survey that had been done by the Iplan and DBKL existing land use, there are some mismatch of land use between the online data and real time. One of the example that the researcher can refer is the residents of site study area are using their residential area to carry out commercial activity. Even though mixed-use buildings is a good aspect that can help the people by promoting walkability and safety aspect, but then without a proper planning this issues can lead to many other problems. Such as traffic congestions, improper waste management and floods.

Many of the informal houses are built by the owner of the land itself, according to their preference of type of house and affordability. Based on the findings from fieldwork, it has been found that most of the houses built did not comply to the guidelines that has been stated in Uniform Building By-Law and legal documents from local authority due to the limitation of reinforcement as the land is a private land. The legal title has become the barrier for the local authority to take legal action or fined the house owner. Many of the houses built neglected the guidelines for setback which could put the lives of the residents at stake if accidents happen in their housing area.

N.T.S

Based on the virtual site visit that has been done, there is two areas that has been identified as a squatter's area. In this case, the landowners and the squatter's identity cannot be identified due to the lack of data.

According to Kuala Lumpur City Plan 2020, the local authority aimed to tackle the squatter issue by targeting zero squatter population. However, it seems that DBKL did not manage to achieve their zero squatters target before 2020 due to uncontrollable factors.

There are also few houses are being left abandoned and unoccupied These houses could become the spot for social problems that occur in the housing area. The reason for the abandonment of the houses is unknown due to limitation of virtual observation. However, these houses clearly could set a bad image to Kg. Datuk Keramat aside from ruining the visual quality and landscape of the neighbourhood.

The picture show one of the example of mismatch of land use whereby it should be a residential area, but then the residents are opening a food shop.

D. Inadequate Provision And Non-inclusive Design Of Public Facilities The virtual site visit has shown that Kg. Datuk Keramat lacks certain type of public facilities such as hospital, clinics fire station, secondary school and public library. Even though these facilities can be found in the other neighborhood surrounding Kg. Datuk Keramat, it would be more convenient for the resident of Kg. Datuk Keramat if those facilities are present in the neighborhood because there are possibilities that the facilities in the surrounding neighbourhood such as the nearest secondary school from Kg. Datuk Keramat, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Padang Tembak which is located in the neighbourhood north to Kg. Datuk Keramat which is Kampung Padang Tembak do not have a catchment area wide enough to cater for the whole Kg. Datuk Keramat as well.

Besides, the accessibility of most of the public facilities in Kg. Datuk Keramat are clearly designed with no consideration of the disable community. For example, based on the virtual fieldwork, it has been identified that the pedestrian walkway that connected the facilities to other places do not have tactile paving equipped on them. This might prove to be an obstacle to DBKL vision which is inclusivity.

The flashfloods occurrence and incidents are very common in the study area. It has been reported that the issue has been going on for about 20 years already. The cause of the incidents are said to be related to the development of the highways located to the southern part of the study area. The flashfloods is also said to be caused by clogged drainage and poor drainage system in the study area. The issue is already acknowledged by the local authority, Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur, and an initiative has been proposed at the affected areas. The project proposed kicked off in December 2019, which is on the pump house and the cost of the project is said to reach RM1.4m. However, despite the local government’s initiative to tackle the issue, the flashfloods incident once again strike on 17th November 2022.

B. Disruption Of Water Supply Water interruption often occurred almost every month started from July in the year 2020. Most of the factor that causing the interruptions is because of the pollution in raw water such as the river followed by pipe leakage. Based on the Chart 5.1.2, respondents choose water supply polluted as the factors that always occurred in Kg. Datuk Keramat. If there is a planned water interruptions for a long period of time, Air Selangor must ensure to give written notice to local residents and restore the supply by the time stated in the notice. If the case in emergency state, Air Selangor must take reasonable steps as soon as possible to let the local residents know about it.

Lack of Identity and Image Quality as an Urban Traditional Village

Malay Reserve Land

After the study of urban design and heritage in Kg. Datuk Keramat is been assessed, the identity and image quality as an urban traditional village is lacking. Based on the chart above, there are few factors that contributes to this issue. Population density in the study area is dense population because based on Malaysia context, traditional village area become denser when the population is more than 300 people in 1 km sq. Although the land is owned by Malays, the land status in Kg Datuk Keramat is uncertain when DBKL was found out that the Malay Reserve Land status is not declared yet. In terms of architectural design, Kg Datuk Keramat is lacking in maintaining their traditional design values. Furthermore, Pasar Keramat which act as the landmark there is not manage properly and is not too visible as people pass through the street. Lastly, the residents are less likely to engage in social cohesion as it lacks outdoor spaces.

The study area is well served with road networks and public transit that provides connectivity to surrounding development.

The public spaces includes the walkway in Kg. Datuk Keramat is not universally designed, which certain groups especially disabled are limited in using the public spaces and walkways.

Kg. Datuk Keramat is already well served with provision of public transit such as variety of bus lines and LRT transit station, hence, there is an opportunity for a more integrated public transit.

Housing Incompliance With Guidelines

Enhancing The Infrastructure And Utilities

The houses in the area does not comply with the guideline which can cause a lot of safety issues.

As the lifespan of infrastructure and utilities condition become reducing, the maintenance need to be always updated to cater all the demands. For instance introduction of new technologies, upgrade the level of services and improve efficiency of infrastructure and utilities.

Lower Residential Property Sale Price As an older urban traditional village in Kuala Lumpur, the study area has 23% lower average of sale price compared to State average.

Grid Pattern Settlement The residential area is designed in an iron grid pattern, which ease the circulation and gives a nice visual quality.

THREATS Small And Clogged Drainage Can Lead To Flash Flood Some storm drains in study area may clogged with rubbish and mud, weeds and thick silt. These not well-maintained drains further cause overflow of water and surface runoff Lack Of Safety In The Houses Design The lack of safety in the design of the houses will increase the risk of crime.

Improper Land Use Planning Due to the issue of mismatch of land use, this issue can lead to many other residents to easily changes their residential area to other type of land use and cause create much bigger problem if the authority do not take actions on this.

To conclude, Kampung Datuk Keramat which has been established since the year 1857 has undergo a lot of development growth for the past few years. Although Kampung Datuk Keramat started of as a Traditional Village because of the Malay reserve land title, it has now started to lose its charm as a Traditional Village due to the influx of new development which incorporate a modernize visual and structure.

Hence, the Traditional Village remains only in the name without any of the characteristic can be seen anymore.

It is understood that Kampung Datuk Keramat has currently facing a lot of issues such as traffic Congestions, lower walkability, flashflood occurrences, insufficient open space area, mismatch of land use (informal mixed-use), water disruption and lack of guidelines on informal houses. Thus, in the next development plan, these issues should be confronted in the first place to ensure the liveability of Kampung Datuk Keramat.

Kampung Datuk Keramat has been assessed using the hybrid assessment matrix tool which is the mix of MurniNet, LEEDs and Liveability Index assessment tools. The usage of this tools is to properly assessed Kampung Datuk Keramat in detailed on the development that has been done here.
