| Abstract: | Urban traffic system cannot exist without infrastructure for pedestrians. The needs of the pedestrians should be considered while designing new roads or planning reconstructure of already existing roads. Unfortunately, in many cities of Ukraine there are a lot of problems linked with sidewalks and other elements of pedeestrian facilities so they need to be assessed and reconstructured if it needed. The focus of this study is to show existing methods of evaluating pedestrians’ level of comfort, which successfully used in the world. |
