| Popis: | The levels of service (LOS) for pedestrian facilities are influenced by a lot of factors and different pedestrians have different perceptions on the LOS. Referring to the method of passengers' perceptions on pedestrian facilities in urban rail transit and the survey idea of stated preference, a questionnaire on the basis of the perception has been conducted to explore the LOS for passages in urban rail transit. On the basis of the survey results, the study proposed six LOS design standards for Beijing urban rail transit passages. The classification results were also compared with LOS criteria for walkways proposed by HCM 2000. It indicated that the lower limits of the LOS standards adapted by Beijing urban rail transit were slightly lower than the criteria of HCM2000, and the reasons were analyzed in the end. The LOS standards can be taken as the reference for designing and evaluating the urban rail transit passages. |
