Abstract

We propose a comprehensive and multi-functional Overpass Pedestrian System to alleviate the serious traffic congestions in metropolitan areas of big cities in China. It is composed with three major parts: switching and connecting part, transportation part and service facility part. Compared with the pedestrian system and foot-bridges in some busy intersections in urban areas, this system is more efficient and human-oriented on separating pedestrian and vehicles. It can not only relieve the traffic congestion but also increase the comfortable level of walking. Differs from average isolated and single-functional foot-bridges, the system provides pedestrians with more pleasant walking experiences, thus increases pedestrians’ willing to use this system.
