The presence of an activity in a public space should not obstruct the right of other users. In order to create an ideal public space as a shared space, the existence of various activities such as street vendors (SVs) must be properly managed. SVs, as well as other activities, should strengthen the function of public spaces and not the other way round. Stabilisation is implemented by regulating several characteristics of SVs location and activity as a form of SVs management in public spaces. This idea became the entry point for SVs improvement, although so far SVs conditions have not been optimally improved. Some new components/ indicators of arrangement will enrich the efforts for stabilisation. In this study, the analysis technique of partial least square (PLS), which negates a variety of assumptions was applied to test the effect of stabilisation on the change or improvement of SVs’ welfare, behaviour, and location. The results show that the enrichment of components in stabilisation arrangement has a positive and significant effect on the three elements of SV improvement. The effect of stabilisation on SVs’ behavioural changes had the highest value if compared to that of welfare and location changes.
