The paper assessed street trading and condition of sidewalk space in the core area of Ado Ekiti. A total of 200 copies of questionnaire were administered altogether. The copies of questionnaire were administered to the people in the core area of the city as well as street traders. Data analysis was done with descriptive analysis method with the use of frequency table and percentage table. Findings revealed that sidewalk space in the core area of Ado Ekiti is not adequate. The study further revealed that majority of the sidewalk spaces in the core are of Ado Ekiti can be considered narrow; which is a result of the low level of concentration of the engineering designs of the road during the construction phase. Most especially in areas such as Matthew Street, old garage among others, the width of the space allocated for sidewalks are often very narrow among others. It is recommended that there should be development of the rural areas as there is high rate of inequality of in the distribution of resources and facilities that facilities development. If the rural areas are developed, there will be lesser population concentration in the core areas. It is also recommended that government at all levels should ensure the creation of neighborhood market in several towns and villages as well as different neighborhood in the urban centres as this will foster the decongestion of core areas of urban centres among others. |
