| Abstract | Walking forms the basic as well as sustainable mode of transportation. A good strategy for addressing the social and environmental problems related to traffic and transportation is to encourage people to walk and use public transportation. Policymakers must prioritise the needs and expectations of pedestrians in order to encourage individuals to choose walking as their preferred form of transportation. Therefore, urban transportation networks should establish a secure and enjoyable walking environment. The aim of the study is to identify the various factors affecting pedestrian level of service at sidewalks of Kollam district in Kerala, India. Thereby, estimating the significant factors by conducting Pearson correlation at 95% confidence interval using SPSS software. Based on significant factors, best-fit regression model was developed among different regression methods. Ridge regression is found to be the best-fit model, with an accuracy of 97.14%. The threshold values for PLOS, pedestrian density and space were estimated using k-means clustering. In order to evaluate, the aspects of the walking environment that primarily determine the degree of service provided to pedestrians, this study looks into a number of pedestrian-related issues. To improve the quality of sidewalks and make the city more walkable, city planners can establish new strategies and policy interventions with the help of the proposed model and threshold values. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
