质量与安全评估的行人在哈里亚纳邦两个中型城市的人行道上
人行道交通起着重要的作用,为人们提供一个安全的路径走,分开的机动车辆。在郊区,人行道上有助于提供平等机会的人不能开车,尤其是儿童、老年人和经济弱势群体。人行道上也扮演着重要的角色在适应人,而完全能够开车,可以选择不取决于他们事业的长度和类型的旅行,比如走到当地的商店,娱乐或体育锻炼,散步或宠物(如狗)散步。密度高、混合土地使用模式,短途旅行距离和高走是印度城市的主要特征。但是,印度的许多城镇和城市对行人运动并不友好。行人的安全,严重影响了交通的快速增长和行人网络不足特别是中央商业区。行人进一步影响城市空气污染和噪音污染。预计行人走在人行道上建造的车道。大多数时候,这些人行道被路边侵占开发或由供应商和小贩占据。在人行道上是可用的,那么缓冲区为行人提供但这些缓冲区被停放车辆或者侵占其他用户。 As a result pedestrians are forced to walk on the carriageway. Not many comprehensive studies on pedestrian sidewalk facilities and assessment of their safety and quality have been taken up especially in the mid sized cities in the country. Absence of sidewalk wherever necessary, deteriorated conditions of footpath, encroachments of footpath, presence of footpath wherever pedestrian movement is negligible are some of the problems to be studied. As pedestrians are the most vulnerable among road accident victims, the study aims to highlight the need for providing better sidewalk facilities for pedestrians to save them from road accidents.
