Capturing pedestrian movement safety and security issues at major transportation interchanges

More often than not, transportation nodes such as stations, interchanges and terminals were designed without much consideration to the needs, ergonomics and behavior of prospective passengers and public transport users. This research reports the first phase of the validation of data for the captur...
