“…Besides, similar play equipment materials were found in most of the areas: the typical performed steel and plastic. The unique function related to the local community mentioned by Nurulhusna Qamaruz-Zaman and Frans Ari Prasetyo (Prasetyo & Martin-Iverson, 2015;Qamaruz-Zaman et al, 2012)seems to have been abandoned in the playgrounds under a flyover/expressway in Bangkok.…”

“…Children have also been provided with a free informal school program, Sekolah Taman (Park School), in this area. The addition of public facilities and amenities in such area can be expected to further draw the interest of various groups, including commercial establishments and the government (Prasetyo & Martin-Iverson, 2015) According to the aforementioned previous studies from Southeast Asia, the allowing of flexible use of the areas under flyovers/expressways, the uniqueness of such areas, and the strong self-organized communities are the main factors that contributed to the development of the areas under flyovers/expressways. Also, the establishment of the Sekolah Taman program is a good example of providing an alternative activity for children in the vacant areas under flyovers/expressways as a crucial part of development planning.…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of the playground areas under flyovers/expressways in Bangkok and the children's point of view regarding the utilization of the areas under flyovers/expressways as playgrounds. To understand the current playground situation in Bangkok, the play patterns of the children therein were observed. Children's need to play and their satisfaction with using the areas under flyovers/expressways as playgrounds were studied through observation, a visual questionnaire field survey, and an interview. It was found that the playground areas under flyovers/expressways in Bangkok have three main characteristics: (1) they are equipped with typical preformed play equipment surrounded by sports and adult areas; (2) the play zone has been extended naturally, and free play has been made possible; and (3) vertical movements made with the provided play equipment, such as swinging, sliding, and climbing, are the common play patterns in such areas.

“…Various works of literature have noted that the issue of lost spaces or residual spaces in relation to transport infrastructure is a result of two phenomena: 1) traditional planning; and 2) a lack of integration during the early stages of development, primarily during the planning and design process. The problem of residual spaces caused by traditional planning is indeed a gap that needs to be addressed (Akinci et al, 2016;Mossop, 2006;Prasetyo & Iverson, 2015). Challenges emerging from rapid urbanization require a monumental change in planning processes and practices to holistically integrate ecological dimensions alongside traditional planning interests.…”

Traditional planning practices, wherein attention is directed at the provision of single functions or zoning, have led to the emergence of lost spaces in cities like Kuala Lumpur. Elevated highways are a prominent contributor to the formation of these lost spaces and are seen as a hurdle in achieving a sustainable compact city. Studies suggest that green infrastructure (GI) planning, which aims to promote multifunctionality in spatial planning, is a suitable approach to address this dilemma. To identify the benefits of the GI approach in mitigating lost spaces underneath elevated highways in Kuala Lumpur City, this study utilized two methods: site observation and expert interviews. The results suggest that GI planning can achieve benefits ranging from economic aspects, such as increasing property value, to social aspects, such as promoting a healthier urban lifestyle. However, such benefits may vary as these spaces have different typologies in terms of accessibility, size, location, and surrounding context. Nonetheless, the GI approach can be seen as the key to achieving a sustainable compact city, since it supports the ability of urban spaces to provide multiple benefits concurrently. Thus, the identification of its benefits could lead to the more sustainable planning, design, and management of lost spaces.

“…Scholars, designers and planners, ranging from multiple fields of practice, have noted that the issue of residual spaces in relation to transport infrastructure is a result of a lack of integration during the early stages of development, primarily during the planning and design process. Thus, the problem of residual spaces is indeed a gap that needs to be addressed (Akinci et al, 2016;Jalian, 2015;Mossop, 2006;Prasetyo & Iverson, 2015). One of the recent approaches in addressing residual spaces in the city is through green infrastructure planning.…”
