Urban streets are dynamic spaces with a sense of movement, which are designed for use by pedestrians and riders, or sometimes only on foot.These spaces often do not respond properly to the needs of the people who use them, and people look at the street as a path just for riding.The purpose of this research is to fully and comprehensively identify the effective indicators in improving the quality of city streets.This research is practical in terms of purpose and in terms of method, using the Delphi technique and the method of structural equations.By using documentary and library methods, opinions and views of experts have been summarized and presented in the form of default indicators.In the first stage, the statistical population of the research was considered to be 20 experts in the field under study.Based on the results of the questionnaire,the initial indicators were analyzed in several stages using the fuzzy Delphi technique, and the final indicators were measured for normality using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.In order to finally confirm the indicators extracted from the first stage, confirmatory factor analysis method was used to create a structural equation model. In this section, due to the unknown statistical population, using Cochran's formula, the size of the statistical population was considered to be 384 normal people. Finally, using Friedman's test, the indicators were ranked to determine the effectiveness of each one.The results of the findings are a complete identification of the effective indicators identified in improving the quality of Shahid Beheshti Street in Karaj.
