| Research Abstract |
1. A handy economic model in consideration of the plant investment for barrier-free improvements was built, and the most suitable barrier-free level is explained by the efficiency standard.
2. Travel time was measured separately with multiple case of the rate of the old man contained in the degree of the movement barrier by the method of the computer simulation.
3. A SD model was made to evaluate effect on an influence by barrier-free environment improvement on one the same field. It was divided into 5 sectors such as; 1) handicapped person or old man, 2) assistance person or care business person, 3) commercial establishment, 4) general citizen, and 5) administration, and simulation for the action confirmation was carried out.
4. The actual condition grasping investigation, a user experiment was enforced as the store of the shopping street and the shopping street in front of the actual station. The examination of the cost vs. effect that grasping of the repair condition related to Universal Design of the store and the shopping street in the cause is related to the proposal of the way of preparing it, the maintenance was done it.
5. It faced a use research on the actual condition in the station where the establishment of the going up and down device in the railroad station was completed, and questionnaire investigation was carried out.
6. The research of the application of the new transport system that it aimed at Universal Design was done. The new system is considered based on the present condition of the public transport in the rural area and the old men's character.
