- Abstract
The problem of pedestrian across the street during the red light is always a focus of China's urban traffic management and difficult. This phenomenon has been improved after years of renovation in some developed cities such as Beijing. However, in some middle-sized and small cities, the problem of pedestrian across the street during the red light is still serious. Pedestrians as vulnerable groups of the traffic participants, more likely hurt by motor vehicle. The problem of pedestrian across the street during the red light is not only a violation of traffic regulations and seriously affect traffic order, increasing the possibility of accidents at the same time. Pedestrian traffic is the weaknesses of urban traffic system, it’s meaningful to study on characteristics of pedestrian crossing. We used survival analysis for modeling the process of pedestrian’s waiting. According to the survey data of the waiting time which the pedestrians across the street in Shijingshan, we acquire a survival curve of waiting time in three groups of old people, middle-aged people and young people. The result shows that the pedestrians on the roadside waiting to cross the street is 34s, and recommend that the maximum red time in Shijingshan is less than 50s. Reasonable control can improve compliance rates, and reducing the risk of violation.
