The study examines pedestrian congestion at the Baguio Public Market pedestrian mall. It provides background on the establishment of Baguio and the market. A 1970 fire destroyed market stalls, leading to construction of a new market building. The study aims to analyze pedestrian circulation, identify causes of congestion and traffic issues, understand public behavior, and propose solutions to improve walking conditions. Data collection will inventory the study area, including land use, pedestrian volumes and characteristics. Physical features of streets and sidewalks will also be documented along with traffic regulations. Analysis of pedestrian trips will inform design schemes to address problems impacting public health, convenience and accessibility.

for the Baguio Public Market Pedestrian Mall CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY. The presidentia of Baguio was first established in the house of the Campulet at the top of the new Tabacalera road at the lower end of Guisad Valley. Later, the presidentia of Baguio was moved to the present site of the Baguio City Hall. The Spaniards were able to establish order, built churches ,schools and trails. In 1900 the Americans established their government. This was the first provincial government to be established in the Philippines and this happened a year prior to the inauguration of the civil government of the Philippines. Business in the city flourished with commercial centers put up. Baguio was a newly established township in the Northern Luzon highlands. The Baguio Market then served a small, multi-cultural community. The market fire in 1970 and the subsequent demolition of the Stone Market stand out in the memory of Baguio residents who witnessed these. A major fire on Feb. 19, 1970 gutted all the stalls at the Stone Market and the Dry Goods Section. Only a year earlier, on Feb. 25, 1969, the city had entered into an agreement with a private corporation to build a new public market building. The whole stretch of Magsaysay avenue is also refurbished, adding four (4) overpass connecting two sides of the avenue, traffic islands, pedestrian lanes and fences. This study is a case study and combined strategy for improvement of safety ,convinience and security. A documentatin and analyzation of pedestrian circulation as the basis of standards for pedestrian planning and design in the philippines. Location of the Study area a.) To check the causes of pedestrian congestion and vehicular traffic and how it relates b.) To know the behavior of people towards the present Level of Service of the area. c.) To propose some solution to control and minimize pedestrian congestion. d.) To give pedestrian walking convenient, safe and secure.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Pedestrian movement is diverted due to conflict of access and interference of circulation due to ineffective weather protection during heavy rains and from other street components such as overpass stairs, encroachment of vending to public service area, Insufficient drop off /loading/parking delivery and garbage collection areas. This leads to other pedestrian long and short term problems influencing health, convenience and perceptual degree specially for PWDs.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The data that will be provided by the study presents the current condition and Level of service of the Pedestrian street. This involves municipal, business and community groups that can help establish clear design objectives that are responsive to the requirements of the stakeholders. This study can help to determine which proposals are feasable under which circumtances and to survey and map the alternatives. The formulated design concept approach will facilitate the activities of the pedestrian community in functional, economic,social and environmental objective of the city. CHAPTER 2: METHODOLOGY
This requires quantitative and qualitative research that requires collection of
basic data aboput the study area, including physical features, land use, characteristics of daily pedestrian population. The inventory of land use should include the location and classification of all buildings, streets and transportation services. The physical inventory of the study area includes the plan and dimensions of the street and sidewalk. Street regualtions includes traffic regualtions,signs, and vehicular traffic volumes. The sidewalk inventory should show the dimensions of building and entrances, vehicle stops, location of public furniture and regulations that restrict the sidewalk effeciency. Ideally, all pedestrian walking trips should be determined by inventory , including their origins and destinations, trip purposes, time of day, and volumes. In larger pedestrian networks this information is difficult, if not impossible to obtain, so that combinations of various sampling and analytic techniques are used to develop this data. These techniques include cordon counts, origin and destination surveys, pedestrian density surveys by aerial photography, and mathematical modeling.
