抄録

The road space reallocation project on Osaka's main street, Midosuji, started in 2017 to realize the concept of human-centered urban spaces in response to the change of social trends and conditions. The pilot project has been undertaken to increase spaces for pedestrians and cyclists. While the "Level of Service" concept was widely employed to evaluate user comfort issues in the transportation field, it is unknown whether it could apply to these space differences and evaluate the reallocation effect correctly. In this study, we show the elements that are not expressed by the Level of Service and are directed towards a more realistic comfort assessment; for example, rest spaces in road designs, and the expected and necessary speed to avoid worsening traffic flow.
