Abstract
An Increasing amount of literature is devoted to discuss about the pedestrian movement pattern in indoor or outdoor environment. A better understanding of human behavior is the key to plan and manage the pedestrian flow especially in a transit terminal. Pedestrians visiting a public space have different motivations and therefore may behave differently. In order to determine the pedestrian behavior, some parameters should be measured such as walking speed, spatial use and person counts. The planners have generated a need to understand the pedestrian movement which behavior could be represented in collective form. A comprehensive review of the existing method in looking at the influencing parameters of the pedestrian behavior to the routes choice and pedestrians flow in relation to the level of service (LOS) and interaction of pedestrian in rail transit terminal is still lacking. Therefore, this paper aims to review the pedestrian movement characteristic in a rail transit terminal. Considering the differences of space requirements among different types of pedestrians and owing to the diverse characteristics of their stature, behavior and surroundings, immediate action on planning the rail based infrastructure is needed.
