Pedestrian route choice of vertical facilities at KLCC underground train station

Route choice is the pedestrian’s decision of optimal path between an origin and a destination among a set of alternatives. Pedestrian route choice is dissimilar with drivers’ route choice as the pedestrians have higher degree of freedom and randomness in choosing routes. Meanwhile drivers route choice always constraint of direction for maneuver, space of movement, fixed road and has restricted traffic rules. The understanding on pedestrian route choice behaviour is necessary for planning and design of pedestrian walking facilities especially in rail transit stations that serve thousands of daily ridership.
