The Influence of Physical Quality on Service Scale and Frequency of Visits in "alun-Alun Malang" City Square Park

Malang City is one of the cities with rapid physical growth, but the availability of green open space (RTH) is inadequate. The construction of RTH as a solution to fulfill 20% of public RTH raises new problems of: the occurrence of inequality in the use of city parks. There are city parks that are not functioned optimally, judging from the intensity (number and frequency). Based on these conditions, the study aims to assess the performance, service scale and frequency of visits in Alun-Alun Malang Park, Klojen District, Malang City. The method of analysis utilizes park quality analysis, park service scale analysis, frequency of park visits analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis. Based on the results of the regression test, it is apparent that there is an influence between the park service scale and the services quality of Alun-Alun Malang Park, including amenities (X₁), easy access (X₄), and facilities completeness (X₅). Based on the regression analysis using the successive intervals method, it is obvious that variables which significantly influence the frequency of parks visits, are amenities (X₁), security and safety (X₂), parks identity (X₃), easy access (X₄), facilities completeness (X₅), park beautiness (X₆), activity diversity (X₇), user diversity (X₈).
