Introduction
Mobility and Accessibility are an integral component for planning and design
of road transport infrastructure.
Pedestrian traffic is most neglected road users while planning and designing the
road transport infrastructure.
Significant portions of road users killed in the road accidents are pedestrians.
Present approach for planning and designing for pedestrian traffic is not user
friendly.
The fund allocated for pedestrian facilities is insignificant as compared to total
cost of road project.
Need for innovative approach to ensure safe & secured movement of pedestrian
traffic in along/across congested roads in urban areas.

Pedestrian traffic exposed to road accidents
Need of the Study
The study has been carried out because it was felt that in recent years due to increasing
population, development and awareness the number of trips has increased and
subsequently the number of pedestrian visiting the study area has also been increased.
As the study area is a major junction for Trans- Yamuna traffic movement the study
area faces induced traffic which creates difficulty in pedestrian movement across as
well as along the road.
In the light of the large scale movement of pedestrian traffic and their associated risk
for the movement on the urban road network due to incessant movement of high speed
vehicular traffic, there is a need to develop exclusive pedestrian facilities to be free
from vehicular traffic.
It is extremely imperative to conduct a detailed feasibility study for development of
skywalk facilities in general and specific locations in particular.
Aim:
The aim of the study is to plan a skywalk facility in the institutional area of
ITO to ensure safe & secure movement.
Objectives:
To study the pedestrian characteristics on congested road network in an
institutional area.
To study the relevant literatures including the best practices with respect to
provision of Skywalk on congested road network.
To examine the feasibility for development of Skywalk facility on
congested road network.
To evolve guidelines for development of Skywalk facilities in Urban areas.
Scope of work:
To conduct necessary traffic surveys such as pedestrian volume count, traffic
volume count, pedestrian delay at junctions & other places along with the
pedestrian opinion survey.
To appreciate the best of practices on skywalks in different cities of the world.
To carryout Economic evaluation for developing skywalk facility at ITO area.
To evolve best financial model to make the skywalk system on self financing
mode.
Limitations:
The study is limited to only institutional area.
The other types of pedestrian activity areas have not been undertaken.

PLANNING & DESIGN CONSIDERATION OF SKYWALK-
Other Factors to be considered from Planning Point of View:
Width of Median.
Magnitude of pedestrian traffic crossing the road intersections
Approximate number of jaywalkers
Height and age of the buildings abutting the development
Terrain of the underlying roads
Degree of conflicts between magnitude of vehicular and pedestrian traffic
Abutting Land use
Delay and frustration experienced by the pedestrians in crossing the roads
Magnitude of pedestrian traffic involved in road traffic accidents while crossing.
Skywalk would be appropriate with the possibility of linking business activities with
the pedestrian areas.
Planning & Designing should ensure direct accessibility on link between the activity
generating areas.
Points for Consideration for Economic Feasibility of Developing Skywalks
Benefits of saving in travel time due to direct link between origin and
destinations.
Improvement in the Level of Service for pedestrian traffic along and
across the street.
Making zero conflicts between pedestrian and vehicular traffic across the
street.
Saving in pedestrian accidents on roads.
Possibility of linking business within and around the pedestrian skywalks.
Possibility of Increase in property value due to increase in accessibility to
pedestrian traffic.
Enhancement of environmental quality of the urban roads.
CASE STUDIES-
To study the skywalks and their role as a pedestrian facility skywalks from
different parts of the world are studied as case study including:
Calgary +15 Walkway
Downtown Minneapolis Skywalk
Downtown Saint Paul
Shin-Yi Skyways
Bandra Skywalks, Mumbai
Bandra (E)- Kalanagar Skywalk, Mumbai
Bandra (W) Skywalk, Mumbai
Best Practices on Skywalk
The world's largest skyway network Calgary,
Alberta's "+15 Walkway" system has a total
length of 16 km (9.9 mi). However, the system
is discontinuous, and it does not connect every
downtown building.
The largest continuous network of skyways in
USA the Minneapolis Skyway System spans
8 miles (13 km) connecting 69 blocks in
downtown Minneapolis.
Downtown Minneapolis Skywalk
In 2008, the highest daily volumes foot fall were
recorded on skyways linking City Center to Macy's
and Gaviidae Common.
Another busy location was the Northstar Center
food court escalator connecting the ground floor of
the building to the skyway.
It was observed that half the retail locations
involved in the skyway study saw traffic increases
from the previous year.
the development of skywalk acted as a catalyst to
increase the significant movement of the pedestrian
traffic.
Downtown Saint Paul
The man credited for bringing the start of the skyway system to
Saint Paul is Watson Davidson.
The Davidson family once owned a large part of downtown Saint
Paul, including the historical Pioneer and Endicott Buildings.
After seeing the initial success in Minneapolis, he was convinced
that Saint Paul needed to have skyways too. He built one in 1967,
linking the Federal Courts Building to the Pioneer Press Building.
Shin-Yi Skyways
The four branches of XINYI PLACE are located between Songzhi
and Songren Roads and connected by a skywalk to neighboring malls
(including TWTC).

Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has initiated a project of skywalks
under the Station Area Transit Implement Scheme (SATIS).
It integrates pedestrian movement with railway station. Bandra Skywalk, from Bandra Station (E) to
Kalanagar, covering 1.46 km having 4 mt wide walkway on Bandra (W) side and 864m on Bandra (E)
side. (Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority 2008)
MUMBAI: The skywalk project has started yielding profits for the Mumbai
Metropolitan Region Development Authority ( MMRDA) which is raking in Rs 8.2
crore as advertisement revenue for the Bandra East and West skywalks.
They were expecting to generate more funds from the city's other skywalks. "There
are 30 skywalks in the city which are being used by a million people.
Some of them are in premium revenue generating spots and we hope to use the
funds generated for development projects in the city and region," he said.
The skywalk project was discontinued after strong protests from citizen groups.
Shopkeepers perceived them as a threat to their business.
The Bandra East skywalk was constructed in two phases, the Bandra station to
Bandra Court(494 metres) Bandra Station to Kalanagar(970 metres) and Bandra
West(864 metres).
In starting MMRDA tried to get advertising revenues from the Bandra skywalk
earlier they failed to get a proper response as there was a recession in the country.
Objectives of Developing Skyways in Foreign Countries
Because of the inclement weather in winter,
the skyway increased the property values of those second-story retailers and had attracted
large numbers of people to the area.
the skyway system had been continuously developed in Minneapolis and had formed a
traffic network in the city core.
From then on, the major goal of building the skyway system to provide a climate-controlled
environment had shifted to spur the citys economy.
to strengthen the public transit system
expand the service area, and
improve the entire areas development
The private developers, applied for linkages to the system in order to increase their own profits.
As a result, one can conclude that the skyway system in the Makuhari area is constructed for
the transportation and economic motives.
Benefits of Skyways
To provide a pedestrian-friendly environment and encourage the commercial
development in a city core are regarded as the two major and interrelated
advantages of skyways.
i. Creating Pedestrian-Friendly Environment- As they separates
vehicles & pedestrians improving safety & allowing pedestrians to stroll
freely if connected to different buildings of downtown.
ii. Encouraging Commercial Development
Traffic Aspect- Travel behaviour has been changed due to the development
of skyway system in downtown as it allows people to park in garages of
fringes & reach their destinations in city core.
Economic Aspect- Before planning of Skyway system the retailing in
downtown Minneapolis had been deteriorating which was able to recover
after that system planning, Kaufman (1985) also credits the skyway
system for assisting in transforming the city core into a popular spot with
a mixture of land uses.
Concerns on Skyway Development
i. Impact on Street-Level Retail
ii. Urban Design and City Image
iii. Issues on Traffic
The skyway entrances are usually located in private buildings,
making it hard for the skyway users to find their ways to the system.
Robertson (1994) therefore stresses the importance of a clear
directional system. Robertson (1994) observes that some of the
skyways in Minneapolis are not open in the night time or on
weekends, which affects the accessibility of the skyway system.
Moreover, the operating hours are inconsistent on holidays, causing
users to be unsure of when the skyways are open.
Conclusions from the Indian Literature Studies:
Major issues:
Lack of maintenance, damaged parts on skywalk either flooring or of roofing,
dark stretches and encroachment leads to insecurity and safety issues and may
create law and order problems especially for women at night.
Whether a facility is working in peak hour, it must fulfil the purpose for which it
is meant to i.e.; useful for crossing and walking all day and even in late night
hour.
Proper facility should be provided at places for commuters giving them
flexibility to get over and climb off the facility without extra efforts in case of
physically challenged it is mandatory.
It must connect variety of places or activities rather connecting a single activity
zone to make full use of it even in odd hours.
Another issue is of encroachment of areas under the skywalk structure so proper
monitoring by the local authorities and the police needs to be maintained.
Conclusions from the Literature Studies:
Learnings/ Inclusions that can be adopted from international case-
studies:
A skywalk must be designed in a proper way that it would not deteriorate
the urban design of that area.
A Skywalk network must be developed by keeping in mind the different
variety of land uses and activities.
Such facility can be developed to connect buildings on upper floors to
make it more feasible and more efficient by providing a concourse level/
area for pedestrian circulation.
VARIOUS FUNDING OPTIONS TO DEVELOP SKYWALK-
Involve private sector to reduce costs through higher efficiency
Compromise service quality to reduce costs
Exploit other assets property development
Make non-user beneficiaries pay
Public subsidy
Funding Options/ PPP
a) Revenues from Hoardings/ advertisements on sides of Skywalk
b) Revenues from Rental from Kiosk along and below the staircases
c) Revenues from some portion of ticket fares of metro ride.
d) Revenues from tickets purchased by the tourist visiting tourist destinations.
e) Revenues from the private shopping centers/ malls being connected through the
skywalks.
f) Revenues from the places of sight seeing being connected with the skywalks (Museums,
Libraries etc.)
g) Funding from PPP model (concessioner generating revenue from by developing the
skywalk)
h) Revenues from exhibits displayed on the walls of skywalks
TAXATION
Employment Tax
Transport Tax: Like in Paris, companies employing more than nine people pay this tax a share of
the wage bill towards public convenience facilities.
Betterment Levy (Land Value Capture): This is a tax that the state collects on a plot of land that its
actions have in some way made better. A Share of enhanced value can be used toward financing
public transport and is being extensively followed in Colombia.
Other Dedicated Taxes: Tax on entry to core city area (like in London) etc.
COMMERCIAL EXPLOITATION OF PROPERTY
Exploit Air Rights Over Station Buildings, Terminals and other Facilities
Exploit Land Specially Provided for development
Build and Sell or Rent property: This can be used to meet capital costs or annual operating costs.

DATA ANALYSIS
Primary Data: Across Movement of Pedestrian
The graph shows hourly variation in Pedestrian Volume across Ram
Charan Agrawal Chowk. The peak hour on junction is in morning
(9:30- 10:30) with 1740 Pedestrians least in afternoon time (2:30- 3:30)
with 1114 footfalls.
The above graph shows hourly variation in Pedestrian Volume across
Foot Over Bridge. The peak hour on FOB is at noon time (1:30- 2:30)
with 1524 footfalls while least at evening time (7:30- 8:30) with 533
counts as the pedestrian movement in area tends to decrease in evening.
This graph shows maximum pedestrian flow in morning (9:30- 10:30)
along Pragati Maidan- RCA Chowk with 2777 pedestrians walking
along and least in afternoon (2:30- 3:30) with 1194 pedestrians.
This graph indicates maximum pedestrian flow in morning along
RCA Chowk- SPA in morning peak hour (9:30- 10:30) with 3680
pedestrians and least in evening (6:30- 7:30) with 1404 pedestrians.
Pedestrian volume count is done
different locations in the area to get
idea about the pedestrian flow
quantum of pedestrian. The peak
are identified on every section
crossing so that the level of
can be identified.
For the road crossing it was
that the FOB is used maximum
afternoon hours while in morning
evening the pedestrian count is
one-third of peak hour.
While on Ram Charan Agrawal
peak hour is in morning as the
opening hours might be same
pedestrian count tends to decrease
evening.
Along movement on Pragati
RCA chowk is heaviest or it
identified as one of the busiest
with the need of such facility.
The movement along the RCA
SPA is also one of the busiest
changing footpath
demanding improvement in
which is not possible on grade.
Primary Data: Pedestrian Survey Analysis
It is clear from the chart that maximum people
i.e.; about 75% travels in area for work
purpose only as it is an institutional area and
next comes the purpose of education with
approx. 18%.
These pedestrians visiting the area are
regular visitors with 85% of the people
visiting ITO daily for work & education
purpose.
The 65% of the pedestrians walking in
area the area are visitors from different
parts of NCR while other 5% are local
residing nearby areas of ITO.
78% of the pedestrians walking in
area the area male while females are
22% only.
55% of the pedestrians are from age group
of 20-30 years and 42% of age group 30-40
years of age which shows large no. of
pedestrians capable of walking.
Total 63% of the total pedestrians think that
the quality of facility for pedestrian is of good
quality and they are satisfied with that while
other 37% finds it unsatisfactory.
Primary Data: Pedestrian Survey Analysis
Majority of the surveyed pedestrians i.e.;
approx. 78% thinks that the surrounding
walking environment is not safe while
only 28% says that its safe.
Only 30% of the pedestrians of the
surveyed pedestrians feels that
surrounding walking environment is
pleasant while other 70% thinks that its
not.
39% of the surveyed pedestrians are
ready to pay for using the facility while
61% thinks that it must be a free service
and they are not going to pay.
80% of the surveyed people said that
they are ready to shift to such an
elevated facility which not only
protects them from climate and also
provide them a kind of secure feeling.
25% of the pedestrians of the total 39%
who are ready to pay are ready to pay up
to 3/- as usage charges for the facility
while remaining 61% had already
refused to pay.
Crossing facility not satisfactory because no
shading provided, the crossing is not safe and also
environment is not pleasant because vehicular
traffic is high, there is litter on FOB, it is long & far
& steps are inconvenient.
Crossing facility is unsatisfactory because it is
discontinuous & not safe as it is accident prone due
to too much traffic, FOB is inconvenient,
surrounding walking environment is not pleasant as
it is crowded & its not safe because of lot of
vehicular activity. Crossing facility is not safe as
vehicles does not stops at stop line, FOB is having
ramp design inappropriate, surrounding walking
environment is not safe as it is crowded.
Crossing facility is unsatisfactory because it is far
from college & not safe due to traffic.
surrounding walking environment is not pleasant
because of traffic & pollution, it is not safe because
Facilities not maintained, Signage, railings are not
maintained.
Shortcuts & Jugaad, capacity of Facility to be
atleast 20 feet wide, should be designed according
to capacity.
Crossing facility is unsatisfactory due to safety
issues & it is not safe as there is too much traffic.
Surrounding walking environment is not pleasant as
visual quality is spoiled here, its not safe because of
too much reckless traffic.

Conclusions of the Analysis:
1. Analysis of the pedestrian traffic with respect to magnitude along the road
reveals that pedestrians are exposed to very deteriorating level of service
primarily dictated by level of service F.
2. Average pedestrian delay observed in front of Police Head Quarters is more
than one and half minutes reflecting the quality of Level of Service F.
3. Study reveals that the delay experienced by the pedestrians at the
intersection is more than 2 minutes; this also reflects deteriorating condition
of pedestrian movement dictated by Level of Service F.
4. Analysis further reveals at least there are 2 victims of pedestrian traffic
killed in the ITO area per year.
5. The analysis with respect to PV2 suggests the need for grade separated
facility.
Conclusions of the Analysis:
6. The study also reveals that 39% of the pedestrians are willing to pay at least
Rs. 2/- for using the skywalk facility & total of 80%pedestrians would be
interested to shift for the skywalk facility.
7. Economic & financial analysis also suggest a significant benefit to be
approved as against the total cost of the development of skywalk with a
EIRR & NPV of 10% & 34.63% Crore and FIRR 22% & NPV 36.97 Crore
respectively.
8. The problem of pedestrian traffic moving along & across the road in the
area is as severe as indicated above with respect to LOS & coupled with
accident more than 5/ year. This is one of the serious issues of pedestrian
problem to be addressed & can be addressed only through the grade-
separated facility like Skywalk.
TENTATIVE GUIDELINES-
By understanding the different case studies and the present condition of the study area
an approach to the tentative Guidelines for development of Skywalk is been developed
as follows:
General:
Where appropriate facilities for pedestrian traffic at grade, cannot be accommodated or
not feasible.
If strong desire line for pedestrian movement exist within 150 m of the landing of an
existing flyover.
Preferably grade separated crossings to be planned & designed as a part of an integrated
BRT proposal.
Exceptional FOB may be permitted where a facility for pedestrian movement at grade
is not possible to be accommodated or feasible.
Source: UTTIPEC
TENTATIVE GUIDELINES:
Location:
Should be developed at a large scale pedestrian generating areas possibly linking of areas such
as shopping, School, Civic, Public- Semi public, Bus Station, Railway Station, etc.
Accessibility Consideration:
Skywalk should be free from encroachment.
Free from all kinds of encroachments in general pedestrian dispersal point in particular.
Engineering feasibility:
A minimum or 3 m of width of skywalk is preferable where without any commercial
exploitation & minimum of 5 m is required for commercial exploitation with respect to
accommodating shops within the skywalk.
Minimum width of staircase- 3 m
Vehicle clearance- 5.5 m from road surface
All public staircase, ramp/ elevator design standards to be followed.
Cycle Elevators should be provided at every alternate FOB and should be 1400 x 2000 mm
Relocation of overhead services must be considered while designing the structure.
Source: UTTIPEC
Usability:
All year round weather protection- It should ensure all year round weather protection.
Lighting for safety and visibility-
Skywalk must deliver a sense of security and safety even during evening/night.
Adequate lighting must be provided at both access points and along the Skywalk.
Lighting level on and around the Skywalk must be minimum 20 lux.
Access to the FOB should also be well lit.
Seating-
Resting places and seating must be provided at minimum two locations along the Skywalk and
at every 100 m length of skywalk.
Garbage Disposal-
Garbage bins must be located adjacent to both access points.
Way Finding/information maps-
Signage indicating the location of various activity zones as per standards must be provided as
per standard. Where appropriate, particularly near pedestrian attractors, way-finding /
information maps must be provided.
Source: UTTIPEC
Guidelines based on Economic Analysis:
It should have minimum EIRR of 10% with positive NPV coupled with B/C ratio to be more
than 1.
Based on minimum number of fatalities 2 in a year.
Guidelines based on Financial Analysis:
FIRR should be 18% with substantial NPV values.
PPP modal should be one of the means of successful implementation of for a Skywalk
facility.
The following funding options could be used for successful development of Skywalk facility.
Revenues from Hoardings/ advertisements on sides of Skywalk
Revenues from Rental from Kiosk along and below the staircases
Revenues from some portion of ticket fares of metro ride.
Revenues from tickets purchased by the tourist visiting tourist destinations.
Revenues from the private shopping centers/ malls being connected through the skywalks.
Revenues from the places of sightseeing being connected with the skywalks (Museums,
Libraries etc.)
Funding from PPP model (concessioner generating revenue from by developing the skywalk)
Revenues from exhibits displayed on the walls of skywalks
Other factors to be considered from Planning point of view:
1. Width of Median.
2. Magnitude of pedestrian traffic crossing the road intersections
3. Approximate number of jaywalkers
4. Height and age of the buildings abutting the development
5. Terrain of the underlying roads
6. Degree of conflicts between magnitude of vehicular and pedestrian traffic
7. Abutting Land use
8. Delay and frustration experienced by the pedestrians in crossing the roads
9. Magnitude of pedestrian traffic involved in road traffic accidents while crossing.
10. Skywalk would be appropriate with the possibility of linking business activities with the
pedestrian areas.
11. Planning & Designing should ensure direct accessibility on link between the activity
generating areas.
CONCLUSIONS-
From the above study it is observed and proved that the existing condition
of the study area is very deteriorating from the pedestrian point of view and
hence some improvement is needed in extreme urgency for betterment of
the condition. The study also proves that from the aspect of Economic &
Financial Analysis the planning of a facility like Skywalk is feasible and
the pedestrian are ready to use such facility for safety, time saving and
convenience.
