Abstract
The concept of “humanity-oriented transportation” primarily stems from the negative impacts of "car-oriented transportation," prompting a shift in thinking towards emphasizing a more humane approach to traffic planning to ensure public safety. This involves prioritizing pedestrian and bicycle traffic on roads, increasing pedestrian activity space, and reducing the impact of motor vehicles on road users. This prompted the present study to explore the utilization of Shepard density interpolation method to establish traffic density fields and to introduce topological optimization models to investigate how to reasonably reduce vehicular space within the acceptable range of overall service levels on urban roads, thereby releasing more space for pedestrian activities. By combining adaptive refinement strategy, this allows for more accurate estimation of traffic density, facilitating effective allocation of both vehicular and pedestrian spaces.
