INTRODUCTION OF THE DESIGN PROBLEM

Bongabon is a municipality in Nueva Ecija, a landlocked province in the Philippines.

The municipality covers 242.91 square kilometers (93.79 square miles), accounting for 4.27
percent of the total area of Nueva Ecija. The population was 66,839 according to the 2020
Census. This accounted for 2.89 percent of the total population of Nueva Ecija province, or
0.54 percent of the entire Central Luzon region's population. The population density is
calculated at 275 people per square kilometer or 713 people per square mile using these
figures.

Category Second Class Municipality

Region Central Luzon (REGION 3)

Bongabon, like all other Spanish Pueblos of the time, was governed by the "Capitan", the
equivalent of the modern mayor. Catholic religion and high respect for women are two major
influences that Spain has carved into the hearts of Filipinos not only in Bongabon but
throughout the country.
As strangers walk through Bongabon, they are easily drawn to the brick walls right next to the
city-like town square surrounded by Manila's walls. And since the brick walls are believed to
be related to Spanish rule, newcomers undoubtedly conclude that there are quiet relics of
majestic Spanish rule lurking in those walls. Will be attached. Bongabon was the first capital
of Nueva Ecija, with only the brick walls of the first state capital remaining.

IMAGING OF THE CITY / MUNICIPALITY

1. Increase the tree planting. Shade, serenity, and sustainability are just a few of the benefits
trees provide to the urban environment for very little cost

2. We should avoid parking on sidewalks because these are pedestrian-only areas. Slow down
and other traffic signs are in place to keep people safe.
Make every public space safe and welcoming for everyone—women, children, and people
with disabilities—by being more open, visible, and inclusive.

3.Greening the city's surroundings is a simple way to improve it. We have a natural affinity
for the natural world and other forms of life, as the biophilia hypothesis suggests.
Plants and clean waterways, for example, provide benefits such as reduced heat and more
attractive surroundings.
While many of us believe it is difficult, integrating green cover with the built environment is
possible. Urban gardens, biowalls, pocket parks, or even simple potted plants or grass patches
all contribute to the urban ecosystem.
We can also start by cleaning up water bodies to turn them from dumps into healthy river
systems and bays.

We can also start by cleaning up water bodies to turn them from dumps into healthy river

4. Improve plazas and request parks.

If you still have access to a plaza or park, consider putting up benches, tables, or sports
equipment that you're willing to share, or setting up food stalls, playing music, planting trees,
or hosting zumba classes—anything to draw people in and encourage conversation.

Let's encourage the creation of new zones, such as family and silver zones.

And, let's be honest, how happy are we with the parks we have and the parks we have lost?
Many Filipinos today have never experienced the joy of visiting a park because we are all
drawn to malls and commercial areas.

5. Participate and collaborate.

The placemaking movement encourages communities to revitalize their public spaces all over
the world. And there are numerous ways for us to participate.

Participate in activities in your barangay or neighborhood, or join development councils.

Initiate projects to improve the safety of dark streets, such as street lighting.

Collaborate with church groups, disability groups, or other people who are interested in space,
design, or transportation. We underestimate how many people care about the city.

Getting to know the people in our community strengthens our ability to spread impact.
Citizens have a significant role to play in the development of cities.

5. Bicycling in Safety and Comfort

Bicycling has the potential to become a much more practical and popular mode of
transportation. We simply require safe riding areas and secure bicycle parking. Bongabon
Nueva Ecija should create a comprehensive network of bike lanes, paths, traffic-free bike-
priority streets, secure bike parking, and bike-sharing.

(2) identity and attractiveness for the transients.

tourists and hosts, while also safeguarding and enhancing future opportunities It is planned.
as a means of managing all resources in such a way that economic, social, and environmental
goals are met. It is possible to satisfy aesthetic desires while maintaining cultural integrity,
ecological processes, biological diversity, and life support systems.

Bali of Nueva Ecija

Camp Paraiso Hotel & Resort is a one-of-a-kind eco-resort in Bongabon, Nueva Ecija,
about 2.9 kilometers from the town. Its three man-made infinity pools are filled with natural
cold waters that flow from the Aurora mountains. Trekking, swimming, camping, glamping,
picnicking, yoga, stargazing, forest bathing, waterfall chasing, river trekking, and bonfire
activities are all available on the property. Hiking in the virgin forest of Mt. Labi is an
exciting option for thrill seekers. Apart from the resort's Bali-like features, there's no denying
that its delicious and very affordable food, such as our signature sisigs, boodle fights, and
samgyeoup nights, to name a few, are unbeatable.Since its inception, Camp Paraiso has been
dubbed the "Bali of Bongabon, Nueva Ecija" by locals and tourists alike, and it has provided
indigenous people with a source of income to help them escape poverty. Its presence boosts
the number of tourists who visit the province, which reduces logging and promotes the growth
of more local businesses.Camp Paraiso provides a tranquil environment away from the city's
bustle. We invite travelers, nature lovers, spiritual seekers, hikers, backpackers, artists, and
musicians to join us in our natural paradise.

ISSUES AND CHALLENGES CITY / MUNICIPALITY

1. Local urban design impact

Small towns with unique sites, issues, and personalities that aren't often seen in larger
cities. The one-of-a-kind challenges Rural poverty, declining and aging population, decreased
economic opportunities, and isolation both within rural areas and from the larger context are
all issues that are rarely seen in cities. Furthermore, people in rural areas have a
fundamentally different relationship to place and space, emphasizing ownership, practicality,
and long-distance relationships. Designers devote a lot of time and energy to the unique
challenges that cities face, but when these ideas are applied to rural settings, the results can be
ineffective, unhelpful, or even harmful to a rural lifestyle.

1.Improving the feeling of safety and security both within and outside of developments

2.Developing a more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly development

3.Revitalizing the city's heritage

4. Inadequate Context – urban design is spatially oriented, maximizing relationships between

buildings, spaces, places, activities, and networks. It also recognizes that towns and cities are
part of a dynamic relationship between people, land, culture, and the natural world.

6. Good Character – urban design reflects and enhances the unique character and culture of
our urban environment, while also acknowledging that character is dynamic and evolving
rather than static. Strong urban identities are fostered.

7. Moderate Level of Choice – promotes diversity and provides people with options in terms
of urban form, densities, building types, transportation options, and activities.

8. Good Connections – good connections expand options, promote social cohesion, make
places more lively and safe, and make it easier for people to interact. All networks connect
and support health towns, and residents and visitors can easily navigate where physical
layouts and activity patterns are well understood.

9. Creativity – adds richness and diversity to a space and transforms it from a functional to a
memorable experience.
place.

10. Custodianship – reduces environmental impacts through environmentally sustainable and

responsive design, while also creating enjoyable, safe public spaces, a well-maintained
environment, and a sense of ownership and responsibility among all guests and visitors.

11. Moderate Collaboration – effective communication and coordinated action from all
decision-makers and communities involved.

2. Mobility and public space integration

A good public space and mobility are those that reflect diversity and encourage people to live
together in harmony, while also providing the necessary conditions for permanence and
inviting people to be out on the streets. People are drawn to spaces because of their vitality.

1. Using a variety of uses, such as bars, restaurants, cafes, and local commerce, to blend
residential, office, and commercial areas attracts people and makes the environment safer and
friendlier. External activities contribute to the safety of spaces as a result of the variety of
uses: more people on the streets helps to reduce crime. This variety, however, must be
available at all times of the day. Even if the spaces are inviting and bustling during the day,
they will be dangerous at night. Planning public spaces in a way that encourages people to
coexist and stay is also a way of putting money into security.

2. Not so good active facades: The connection between the ground level of buildings, the
sidewalk, and the street should contribute to urban design safety and appeal. People use
streets that are visually more interesting more frequently. Furthermore, this relationship has
an impact on how people perceive the municipality and how they will use it:

3. Insufficient social dimension and urban vitality: Public space has an impact on the social
dimension as a gathering place for people. Wide, accessible streets, squares, parks, sidewalks,
bike paths, and urban furniture encourage people to interact with the environment, promote
good space use, and boost urban vitality.

4. Human scale: quieter walking pace in more active, livelier environments. People's
perceptions of public spaces are improved by human-scale structures because they feel they
were considered during the planning process.

5. Insufficient lighting: Efficient and people-oriented lighting makes it easier to use public
spaces at night, improving safety. When installed on a pedestrian and cyclist scale, public
lighting creates the conditions for safer movement when natural light is not available.

6. Stimulating the local economy: High-quality public spaces benefit people not only by
providing places to relax and live, but they also have the potential to boost the local economy.
Walking and cycling are encouraged by the safe and attractive environment, which allows for
easy access to local commerce.

7. Local identity: Public spaces should be designed to accommodate the neighborhood's small
businesses. Large businesses (such as supermarkets or other chain businesses) can help the
economy in general, but they have little impact on the neighborhood scale. Small businesses
and ventures have a long-term impact on the community and contribute to its personality and
identity. In order to create a strong relationship between people and place, it is necessary to
consider the social dynamics and cultural specificities of the area when planning a public
space.

8. Complete streets: Wherever possible, public spaces should be designed to adhere to the
principles of Complete Streets and "shared spaces," which define streets that ensure the safe
circulation of all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and public transportation
riders. A complete street can include things like well-maintained sidewalks, bicycle
infrastructure, street furniture, and signage for all users.

9. Green spaces: In addition to improving air quality and cooling cities in the summer,
vegetation has the ability to humanize cities by attracting people to participate in outdoor
activities. As cities grow denser, access to green public spaces will become even more
important, as urban forestation can reduce stress and improve city well-being. Furthermore,
trees, plants, and flowerbeds are important for urban drainage and biodiversity.

10. Insufficient social participation: Residents must be involved in the design, planning, and
administration of urban public spaces and neighborhoods in order to maintain the quality of
these spaces. In each neighborhood and community, public spaces have different uses and
meanings. Residents' input ensures that the nature and use of public space are tailored to the
community's specific requirements. A space will not be used or maintained if it does not
reflect the needs and desires of the local community. Social participation is a critical
component in creating safer, more equitable public spaces.
Every day, the way we live in cities is reshaped by societal change and the emergence of new
policies, technologies, and alternative transportation options. Urbanization, densification, and
high rates of automobile ownership pose planning challenges and force cities to consider new
development models. Despite the fact that public spaces are constantly changing, their
importance for quality of life remains constant. They remain places of exchange, coexistence,
and gathering. They are still necessary for urban well-being. Life happens on the street,
beyond the walls that surround us.
3. Urban living and urban economy

ADVANTAGES

1. Air pollution is reduced. Everyone is aware of this due to the fact that there is more greenery
than people. The air there is cleaner and healthier to breathe.

2. It has more soil than cemented ones, which is ideal for plants. Spending less money by growing
crops to provide vegetables for meals is possible.

3. The summer season is a little cooler because trees absorb some of the heat from the sun. Apart
from that, it also helps to prevent sunburn and rashes.

4. There will be less traffic, no loud car engines, and less car smoke.

5. The use of gadgets will be lower than usual. The sights are more enjoyable than the photos on
social media.

DISADVANTAGES

1. There are insufficient buildings with technology that makes life easier.

2. There are no more job opportunities, but a city offers a higher salary.

3. There are also numerous museums to visit in the city. It also has restaurants with
delectable flavors that will delight the palate.

5. Government offices are not close together. Especially when you need to process important
documents that are typically only a short distance away or are only a few hours away.

4. Cultural and architectural heritage

Saint Francis of Assisi Church

A recent heritage tour of the Diocese of Cabanatuan led to discoveries in Bongabon,

Nueva Ecija's easternmost province. The second-class municipality, which is 38 kilometers
from Cabanatuan, covers 28,000 hectares and is said to be one of Southeast Asia's largest
onion producers. The church dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi, an unusual patron saint for a
town founded by Augustinians, is the focal point of Bongabon's poblacion, as it is in many
Spanish colonial towns. Bongabon, or Bogabong as Augustinian friars Manuel Buzeta and
Felipe Bravo mentioned it, was located in the western side of the Sierra Madre mountain in
the 19th century, with jurisdiction over the neighboring Santor, which was founded in the late
16th century but is now just a barangay of Bongabon.
The town was described as having around 300 light-colored houses, a tribunal, a
parroquial, and a school for the first letters.

Unfinished Church

Bongabon was the first Catholic mission in eastern Nueva Ecija, according to Reguyal,
and was thus dubbed the "cradle of Christianity in eastern Nueva Ecija."
Bongabon was a visita (mission station) of Santor until the late 16th century, when it was
separated and made into a separate parish. Its territory included the present-day towns of
Rizal and Laur, as well as Palayan City, the provincial capital.
The town's first church, like many others in the early years, was built of light materials, and
the Augustinian friar Fr. Juan del Olmo was a Mexican painter who lived from 1894 to 1896.

The church had not been completed since the Philippine revolution broke out, according
to Reguyal, and the priest had been kidnapped by Katipunan revolutionaries and imprisoned
in San Isidro.

After that, the unfinished church was turned into a garrison. In the early twentieth
century, it was damaged by an earthquake and a fire. It was eventually reconstructed using
locally available materials and continued to function as a church.

Half of the original unfinished stone church's facade and apse were saved and
incorporated into the likewise impressive new church inaugurated in 2007 by the town's
heritage-minded church officials and parishioners.

Other Heritage Structures

A sprawling complex of ruined brick structures occupying a block across the plaza in
front of the church. According to Reguyal, the ruins are all that is left of Bongabon's
commandancia, the town's political headquarters during the Spanish period. The ruins are
currently being used as a secondhand Japanese goods store. They're also a neighborhood.
The residential portion of the ruins is currently under threat of demolition, with an apartment
building to be built in its place.

Bongabon also has at least ten heritage houses, both in the poblacion and in Santor,
which has a large Kapampangan population due to migration via the Pampanga River, which
has its headwaters in the Sierra Madre mountains. The 1936 Manansala abode and the
abandoned Bibiano Aquino heritage house are both located in Santor. Santor church,
dedicated to Santa Catalina de Arayat, has 19th-century bells that are still in use, which are
tangible evidence of the Spanish colonial past. At least two of the original 19th-century bells
remain in Bongabon's church.

Vats of indigo

Another fascinating find in Santor is the massive indigo vats that were used during the
city's textile heyday. The riverside vats of stone and bricks, which are about a kilometer apart
but still standing, serve as testaments to a bygone industry. There are signs of previous
treasure-hunting activities in one of the locations, necessitating intervention by the National
Museum to ensure its protection and preservation.

This particular vat location is a two-level complex of rounded and rectangular vats connected
by steps from the lower (riverside) to the upper (farm-side) levels.

A small dam called Pritil, which was most likely built during the Spanish period, still
provides water for irrigation in Santor and the surrounding communities.

Reguyal, Bongabon's driving force behind the rediscovery of its colonial treasures, believes
that the town's tangible and intangible cultural facets should be studied so that residents are
more aware of their significance. Local history and heritage studies are critical, he says, "so
that the younger generation will love their cultural patrimony" and ensure its preservation and
safekeeping.

5. Identify at least three areas you think should have design transformations.

1. Bongabon Joda Transformation

2. Sufficient Lighting
3. Green Parks

MOBILITY AND PUBLIC SPACE INTEGRATION

1. How will the design proposals integrate to the existing public spaces and mobility
networks?

Mobility and public space integration transformation as a matter of design and

methodology, this study's focal point would be the crucible. as a matter of course, those
concerns specific to the context are thoroughly investigated of urban issues and cultural
values, which are used as design decision-makers, these issues, which are designed on a city
scale, examine these creations through the lens of bongabon nueva ecija, focusing on how
those issues can develop a set of values that will guide design strategies.

2. How will the public spaces design and mobility infrastructures improve places in the
City?

The research's structure serves as a vehicle for investigating how commonly

Methods of urban design can be adapted to better address specific urban issues and sites.
Then, working in three phases to explore design at three different scales that are common in
urban design: regional, urban, and neighborhood

3. How the qualities of mobility of the people in the City will be improved?

4. What new concepts and idea of mobility do you propose for the City?
 Since Bongabon, Nueva Ecija is a province, it is close to green areas, the concept would be
Biophilic design, which is an approach to architecture that seeks to connect building
occupants more closely to nature. Natural lighting and ventilation, natural landscape features,
and other elements are used in biophilic designed buildings to create a more productive and
healthy built environment for people.

-Understand the significance of a particular network.

The urban plan should be understood and implemented in a way that makes it easier to live in.
a broader geographical context This can include not only physical structures, but also
geographical and cultural context.

- Social Values as a Form-Driver

Context and communities are the two main generations of design decisions. Design's role as a
catalyst for community health and improvement places a premium on appropriateness and
participation. Ideas that are personal or theoretical
that direct design decisions must be constantly weighed against social considerations
values.

- Maintain the value of nature

Small towns and rural areas are strong because of their ties to the land. This
At both the urban and individual levels, connections can be made.

- Affection for the economic realities

To remain viable, the project must engage with the economic realities of poverty and limited
resources on some level. This does not have to be a limitation, but rather an opportunity to
experiment with new design strategies.
sensibilities

5. How will you improve the quality and efficiency of transfer points and transfer
interface nodes? Where do you want these intermodal transport stops to be located?

Design Strategies

- Regional Framework with Decentralized Node Network

- Community involvement
- Contextual Design is a natural outgrowth of Site Analysis.
- Encourage new growth.
- Development that is suitable
- Projects that do not require a large capital investment (a series of small projects that
represent a larger effort)

6. How can the design of public street network help to avoid or reduce the effects of
urban heat islands and help with storm- and wastewater issues?

1. Integrate green infrastructure improvements into routine street upgrades and capital
improvement projects to ensure that your community continues to invest in heat-reduction
practices.

2. Plant more trees and other vegetation—While space in urban areas is limited, small green
infrastructure practices can be easily integrated into grassy or barren areas, vacant lots, and
street rights-of-way.
3. By planting trees in or around roadside planters and other green infiltration-based practices,
you can make traditional water quality practices do double duty and improve roadside cooling
and shading. Plant native, drought-tolerant shade trees and smaller plants such as shrubs,
grasses, and groundcover wherever possible to help transform your community one project at
a time.

6. Build green roofs—Green roofs are an excellent heat island mitigation strategy because
they provide both direct and indirect cooling. Furthermore, by reducing the heat island effect
and absorbing pollutants, green roofs improve air quality.

7. What is your green and open space concept?

Bongabon, Nueva Ecija is a province with a lot of greenery, the concept would be
Biophilic design, which is an architectural approach that aims to bring people closer to nature.
Biophilic design incorporates natural lighting and ventilation, natural landscape features, and
other elements to create a more productive and healthy built environment for people.
 Biophilic design concept aim to improve access to natural light, views of nature, and fresh
clean air, all of which contribute to the prevention of 'Sick Building Syndrome.' Encourages
employers to set up on-site farmers markets, urban farm food stalls, or vegetable gardens to
promote a healthy lifestyle and a connection to nature.

URBAN LIVING AND URBAN ECONOMY

1. How can a diversity and density of people, uses and offers be organized in the city to
avoid dead areas that are potential spots for crimes and undesirable activities?

-It's useful to look at the spatial patterns of crime and other undesirable activities to see which
areas are the most affected.
illegal practices

Density and Crime/Undesirable Activities

There is a significant impact of density—based on the number of business activities—

when considering the impact of density.
There is a compelling case to be made that this has a positive impact on crime. Considering
the Areas with higher densities will have more foot traffic, which will increase criminal
opportunities. More offenders and potential targets will be brought together in this way. As a
result, there would be more danger in these areas is high. While increased foot traffic will
bring more opportunities, guardians, research shows that the impact of these potential
guardians is more likely. to feel overwhelmed in areas with a lot of businesses As a result,
previous research has typically found that areas with more businesses or non-residential
activities are more likely to be at risk of criminality

Diversity and Crime/Undesirable Activities

 There is more uncertainty about the potential impact of mixed land uses (diversity) on
crime. On the one hand, these mixed land uses will attract more people to the area, potentially
increasing the number of criminal opportunities. It's also possible that mixing residential and
non-residential land uses will stymie the formation of new neighborhoods.
Reduced territoriality – the degree of separation between private and public space – allows for
informal social control.

2. How will you balance safety and security with public space and street relationships?

It is impossible to overestimate the importance of providing a sense of security to people

in public spaces. A sense of security in one's daily environment is a basic human need, but it
can have a variety of negative consequences. Anti-social behavior and attitudes, as well as
stress-related outcomes, are all costs of coping with fear or other feelings of insecurity.

1. Install surveillance cameras.

2. Improve the lighting on the streets.
3. Participate in a neighborhood watch program.
4. Keep in mind the negative consequences of illegal drugs.
5. Keep an eye on the gun safety.
6. Educate all people.
7. Boost the community's health.

Public space are one of the most complex urban environment where planners and designers
need to consider multiple levels and category of users. However, the element of safety is
often neglected as it is a subjective matter. The study was conducted to address the design of
the street and its relation to safety perception. Spaces should be designed as public realm
where everybody could fully use it without any fear. When the street is safe to use, it will
enhance quality of life which is vital elements in human needs.. It needs to be upgraded to
make it sustainable and safe as they are located in strategic location and with high
concentration of pedestrian.

3. How are should local businesses be integrated in the living spaces, and public spaces?

1. Resurrection of community planning

The first step in creating a concept for any public space and living space agenda should
be to identify the community's talents and resources, such as people who can provide
historical context, insights into how the area functions, and an understanding of what is truly
meaningful to the residents. Using this data at the start of the process will help to foster a
sense of ownership in the project, which will ensure its long-term success.

2. Form a comprehensive public space action plan

Both "top-down" and "bottom-up" strategies are required for a comprehensive approach
to developing, enhancing, and managing public space. If large-scale transformation of public
spaces is to occur, city leadership at the highest level is required. A grassroots organizing
strategy from the ground up is also essential to the strategy.

3. Start small and try out new things with a "lighter, quicker, cheaper" approach.

Public spaces are organic and complex. You can't expect to get everything right the first
time around. The best spaces develop over time by experimenting with small changes that can
be tested and refined. Seating areas, a sidewalk café, a community event, a garden, and
painted crosswalks are all examples of "Lighter, Quicker, Cheaper" changes that take
advantage of the community's creative energy to efficiently generate new uses and revenue
for transitional spaces. If one thing fails, try a different approach. If you've had success,
capitalize on it.

4. Government restructure to support public spaces

Unfortunately, government is not set up to support public spaces and Placemaking in
general. In fact, departmental structure and processes can sometimes stymie the creation of
successful public spaces. Transportation departments see their job as moving traffic; parks
departments are responsible for creating and managing green space; and community
development organizations are focused on project development, not the spaces in between.

PROPOSAL

Transportation influences the economic health and quality of life of a community, not only
does the transportation system allow people and goods to move around, but it also influences
growth and economic activity patterns by allowing access to land. The system's performance
has an impact on the environment. Concerns about air quality, environmental resource
consumption, landuse, urban growth, economic development, safety, and security are all
issues that are addressed by public policy.
Transportation planning is critical to a state's, region's, or community's vision for the future. It
includes a thorough examination of potential strategies, a multi-perspective evaluation
process, collaborative participation of relevant transportation related agencies and
organizations, and open, timely, and meaningful public participation.

Problem description

Because public jeepneys in the Philippines are manufactured at a low cost, they do not
undergo any testing. Other vehicles are not subjected to the same design planning procedures,
resulting in a poorly designed workspace and unfavorable driving conditions that are harmful
to the drivers' health.
While the focus of this study was on evaluating and improving the jeepney drivers'
workplace design, Further research could include other parts of the jeepney. This includes the
passenger area as well as the cargo area, a number of factors that influence their mobility and
comfort

What are the system's accomplishments in terms of transportation planning?
