Description

little is known about pedestrian facility design standards based on clothing characteristics, despite the fact that pedestrians are observed walking differently when they are on different attires. For example an Arabian man on long jallabiya is always finding it difficult to have a longer pacing distance; an African men wearing flowing gown known as babbar-riga most a time hinder other facility users while trying to redress his attire. Similarly an African woman wearing headscarf known as gyale obstructs flow of other pedestrians whenever she is redressing the gyale.
