A Safe Pedestrian Walkway; Creation a Safe Public Space Based on Pedestrian Safety

摘要

Urban space belongs to the public acting as a generator of social and cultural interactions. Behavioral patterns define how to use space. Therefore, a successful urban design is based on how it fulfills human values. Urban environment can be the origin of cognition, differentiation and spatial behavior. With a rise of motor vehicles, separation of pedestrian path from vehicle seemed to be inevitable in order to provide pedestrians safety. In this paper, through library based researches, we have tried to reach a model of well-organized pedestrian movement, and to clarify safety factors in addition to designing a people-friendly, urban public space.
