Abstract
Klaten city is one of the favorite destinations in Central Java. It causes a
high level of community movement activities, both inside and outside of the city,
which requires road facilities as the main supporting means and city parks as the
support of tourist destinations. The construction of road and city park often
forgets the arrangement of the green lane of road and city park, so that some
environmental problems arise, such as dust, odor, noise, and heat felt by the
people who is passing and visiting both of them. This research is done by using
the survey method which implementation is carried out by field observations and
interviews with respondents by giving the questionnaires. Based on the evaluation
results, the green lanes of the Pemuda Street and the Green Open Space of the
city park in the Klaten city, Lampion Park and Gergunung Park in Klaten City
have functional and aesthetic values that are quite good and can be felt by users
of the road of the city park, but the number and type plants which are found in the
green lane of the roads and Green Open Space of the park are still lacking. The
form of recommendations which are produced is to make replacements and
additions to tree species, shrubs, and ground cover according to the existing
conditions of the road and The Green Open Space of the park.
