Abstract

Accurate measurement of passengers’ walking speed is significant for evaluating and optimizing service level of the facilities in transfer stations. This paper studies the walking speeds of various transfer passengers on the upstairs of Beijing Haidian Huangzhuang Subway Station during evening peak hours by statistical analysis. The results show that the walking speeds of the male, the middle-aged and the crowed passengers all follow Log-normal distribution. During evening peak hours the passengers’ walking speeds on the upstairs in subway are a bit faster, but the speeds are still limited by the capacity of the facilities.
