In last decade the number of passengers in rail transport has been rising. This phenomenon generates the need of trains with larger capacity and shorter intervals, which means higher requirements for rail infrastructure. The operators of rail transport are usually concerned only with railroad capacity and access roads for passengers seem to be overshadowed. The meddling of passenger traffic flows is more frequent (including mobility impaired people). Passenger traffic flows influence each other especially on platforms and access roads. This causing a discomfort for passengers and the transfer times could be prolonged. In extreme cases even termination of transfer connections. The aim of the project is to set parameters influencing passenger traffic flows in public transport terminals, compare existing models and validate their results in Czech conditions by using cameras and software for flow recognition. The task is to find out, if the elements for people with reduced mobility and orientation (guidence paths, warning surfaces etc.) are sufficient. Primarily in public transport terminals and transfer routes. The aim is to find determinative parameters for directing of this routes where needed and to define descision-making tool for their optimal design.
