issues including landscape/greening and facility design considerations have been under-investigated.
This study explores these ongoing issues associated with urban stream restoration in Korea, as well
as attempts to estimate consumers’ willingness to pay for the restoration process. In particular, this
study estimates the partial values of natural and recreational attributes of urban streams, which can be
improved through various types of urban stream restoration measures, using conjoint analysis. The find-
ings indicate that improving natural attributes by transforming existing concrete-encased streams into
natural state streams increases the value of an urban stream by about 50 USD per household. Improving
recreational attributes, either by creating a walkway where there is no bank or by expanding facilities
to the existing walkway, increases the value of an urban stream by about 25 USD per household. These
estimated partial values of urban stream attributes imply the relative importance of each attribute and
suggest policy implications for priority setting and trade-offs in urban restoration projects.
