REVITALISASI BANTARAN SUNGAI JEMBATAN PEKAMBINGAN DI KOTA DENPASAR

Abstract

The Tukad Pekambingan riverbank in the Pekambingan Bridge area of Denpasar City serves important ecological and social functions as a river buffer zone and an urban public space. Improper land use has caused environmental degradation, reduced buffer zones, and increased flood risk. This study aims to develop a riverbank revitalization concept that restores the buffer function, enhances public safety, and creates sustainable public spaces. A qualitative descriptive method was applied through field surveys, direct observation, and visual documentation. The results show that restoring green spaces and river buffer zones improves environmental quality while providing new recreational areas for the community.
