The purpose of this research is to design an environmentally friendly pedestrian facility by visual perception. A city that has a good road structure, one of the most important is the facilities for pedestrians or road users, especially the design of the urban pedestrian layout. We can see that the current expansion of roads in the city has caused a reduction in green areas as natural water absorption and many pedestrians are displaced, causing pedestrians to switch to using private and public vehicles which results in traffic density resulting in excessive pollution. The method used in this research is analysis descriptive. So far, pedestrian facilities have only been a complement to road construction, modestly built, and do not pay attention to the level of safety, security, comfort, and beauty, so to overcome them it is necessary to redesign road facilities, including improving service facilities, from pedestrian paths and availability complementary pedestrian paths. By redesigning pedestrian facility services, it is expected to improve in terms of safety, security, and comfort.
