AUTO-CITY THEME PARK, JURU, PENANG

Abstract

The project presents the design proposal for Auto-City Theme Park, which focuses on planning and designing a unique interchange spot. Auto-City is located in Juru, Penang. The design proposal is focusing on Phase 3. It is strategically located as it is next to North-South Highway. Since the site is located at commercial area and surrounded by automobile trade centre, it will offer great opportunities for a motor-centric event that can serve the car enthusiasts. However, some issues arise at the area of Auto-City that need to be addressed by the proposal, such as high in carbon emission, less green space and loss of natural heritage. Thus, this study articulates the strategies for a proposal on Auto-City Theme Park derived from several methods, which are observation and interview on special persons and the public.
