SURVEYS AT UNMANNED EXIT BARRIERS OF THE DEUTSCHE BUNDESBAHN

UNTERSUCHUNGEN AN UNBESETZTEN AUSGANGSSPERREN DER DEUTSCHEN BUNDESBAHN

A study dealing with pedestrian traffic in railway stations with heavy local traffic included also walking at barriers. At unattended exit barriers of large passenger stations of Deutsche Bundesbahn, through which considerable passenger flows pass in one direction on leaving the trains during the morning rush hours (6:00 to 9:00 a.m.), extensive counts were made by applying a time-dependent tape recording method under actual service conditions. The data material was evaluated by electronic data processing, applying the methods of statistics and in particular of correlations calculus. The results have been compiled in tables and diagrams as far as practicable.
