The paper explores the importance of establishing walkable neighborhoods in Solapur using the inclusive pedestrian infrastructure. It promotes sustainable living by emphasizing pedestrian-friendly design, effective infrastructure, and community involvement. The paper addresses difficulties in core locations such as Navi Peth, Begam Peth, and Tilak Chauk through in-depth analysis, which includes an examination of pedestrian network design principles and elements influencing walkability such as accessibility and infrastructure quality. The use of statistical methods namely behavioural mapping, interviews, and surveys offers useful information into pedestrian preferences and comfort, emphasizing the importance of elements such as shelter and vegetation. To enhance pedestrian infrastructure while maintaining accessibility, realistic ideas are proposed, such as shifting street vendors to ease congestion. The article intends to give practical insights for urban planners and policymakers by combining empirical facts and best practices to create lively, sustainable, and inclusive pedestrian environments in Solapur.
