Development of a Model for Pedestrians Level of Service

Abstract

As a cleanest city of india, Indore also exerts a significant impact upon there cleanliness, modern development, medical hubs, media, advance technology, smart education, and entertainment and has been described as the commercial capital of the Madhya Pradesh. Indore is the big city in the state of Madhya Pradesh, and as also cleanest city of india in the year of 2017,2018 and 2019, The objective of the present study is to improve the pedestrian level of service at the major market of indore city (rajwada circle). improving the road conditions and designing roads in the future Also as pre C.E.S. Delhi report in sep. 2001 rajwad area has 3369 pedestrian. This is also mention in master plan 2021 (table no 4.11) of indore city. Providing proper safety for pedestrians. pedestrian level of service (PLOS) of that market area is used as a parameter to find safety of pedestrian. The PLOS model was developed using multiple linear regression analysis. In order to determine PLOS, a set of data were collected using a self-data collection survey and road side interview. In this study, it is found that, pedestrian flow, pedestrian speed, pedestrian holding area, pedestrian crossing time, vehicular traffic and road side parking are significant factor in the development of the PLOS model, and therefore influence the movement of pedestrians at market area.
