The Pedestrian Traffic Management
Pedestrian traffic management involves regulating and guiding pedestrian movement within restricted zones in order to ensure the safety, effectiveness, and convenience of all users, . Additionally, it lessens the negative effects of traffic congestion on the environment and society.
1. Typical pedestrian traffic management– pedestrian traffic control is based on the number of persons crossing and their authorizations; control and supervision are achieved by detecting instances of illegal crossings or cross attempts (e.g., two individuals passing on a single permission). It generally takes place using rotor-driven pedestrian turnstiles with three or four passage sections or swing turnstile gates with single or double swing arms that have a pedestrian traffic detecting system installed.
2. Overall pedestrian traffic management – is to regulate the quantity and permissions of pedestrian crossings. It is mostly utilized with swing gates, which allow a small number of persons to cross at a single gate arm swing and are not outfitted with pedestrian traffic detecting systems.
The intensity of pedestrian traffic management
1. Low pedestrian traffic intensity (1) –when there is often no more than one person trying to cross the access control turnstile gates at the same time. There are no lines or blockages. In rare instances, people travel in two directions at the same time, or more than two persons must go in the same direction at the same time.
2. Medium intensity pedestrian traffic (2) – this is when, on average, no more than two or three persons are trying to cross the pedestrian gate at the same time. Sometimes individuals go in two directions at the same time, or sometimes more than five or seven people must walk in the same direction at the same time.
3. High intensity of pedestrian traffic (3) – An average of no more than four or five persons trying to cross the entrance control gate turnstile at the same time . There are occasionally instances where people must go in the same direction at the same time or when two persons walk in different directions at the same time.
4. Excessive intensity of pedestrian traffic– when there are crowds in front of devices or when the average number of individuals trying to pass the pedestrian control gate at once is too high to allow for effective access to the control zone.
Directions of pedestrian traffic management
1. Bidirectional pedestrian traffic (1): This device helps regulate pedestrian traffic in both directions (enter and exit).
2. Unidirectional pedestrian traffic (2): This device helps regulate pedestrian traffic in a single direction (either enter or exit).
Personal Passage Types
1. Personal and goods passage – they are pathways designed for persons who are carrying luggage, such as a luggage cart at an airport or a store.
2. Passage for the disabled –a passage is designed for those who use wheelchairs or need assistance from another person to move around.
3. Personal passage with luggage – apassage is designated for travelers with excess baggage, such as briefcases, backpacks, bags, purses, and suitcases.
4. Passage for people with children – a passage for a guardian with a child.
Passage Directions
1. Right direction– the users using their right hand contacts the device’s housing when they enter an interior zone.
2. Left direction– When users enter an internal zone, they use their left hand to contact the device’s casing.
The turnstile gate’s capabilities
In order to properly develop and implement the facility’s pedestrian traffic control system, take into consideration its suitable capacity. The concept or engineering design development phase is when this kind of evaluation should be done.
To determine the capacity with accuracy, collect the following data:
Maximum number of users that the pedestrian traffic control system can accommodate, as well as the amount of time needed for the maximum number of users to pass through. Each gate (entry or exit from the facility) must have the previously described parameters established independently.
It is necessary to specify and explain certain capacity phrases in order to analyze the pedestrian traffic management system’s gate capacity because it is a complicated term.
The meanings of capacity are as follows:
Gate capacity: The number of operational cycles that a device can complete in an hour.
Predetermined gate capacity: A predetermined number of people passing through the gate zone in an hour.
Actual gate capacity: The number of people who can pass through the gate zone in an hour, as measured at the facility.
Statistical capacity: The number of passages made in an hour, as determined by different facilities and pedestrian traffic control devices made by different manufacturers.
Planning and designing are done using a statistical capacity parameter, which ranges from 500 to 600 people per hour for public buildings and from 500 to 700 people per hour for closed facilities (such industries, sports facilities, and workplaces).
Factors influencing the traffic control system’s pedestrian gate capacity include:
Access control system efficiency (e.g., no needless lag in card readout and control signal transmission from reader to pedestrian traffic control device, such as secure entrance turnstile system).
Users’ familiarity with and knowledge of the entrance gate turnstile control system, specifically refers to closed establishments, such as offices.
Discipline in terms of a passage from an external factor.
Use of the system should be communicated appropriately (e.g., pictograms of the ID card readout or authorization mechanism).
Users of the pedestrian traffic control system, such as supervisors, stewards, and security officers, can actively participate and receive assistance from appropriate human supervision.
Conditions (such as rain or snow, adequate lighting) at the security entrance gate turnstile.
Pedestrian traffic should be directed appropriately, for example, by not crossing gangways and by using suitable barriers that indicate traffic routes for authorized individuals. .
