Description

For wheelchair users, there are many barriers in pedestrian area such as gradients of pavement, differences in level and crossfalls of pavement, etc. Therefore, smoothness of traffic environment for wheelchairs should be evaluated on the route which holds those many barriers.<BR>The purpose of the present paper is to propose a method to evaluate the smoothness of traffic environment for wheelchairs. The weight values of those barriers were calculated by means of analytic hierarchy process. The model was tested by the degree of agreement between estimated value and wheelchairs' evaluation on smoothness of traffic environment.
