| Résumé | A study was conducted to assess the impact of different types of information on people’s behaviour when evacuating from an underground station. Five evacuations were conducted at Monument Station which is the most complex underground station within the Tyne and Wear Metro network in Newcastle, United Kingdom. For each of the five evacuation, the information and the means of providing the information differed: E1- alarm bell only, E2- alarm bell with two staff members, E3- alarm bell and minimal non-directive public announcements, E4- alarm bell with two staff members and directive public announcements, E5- alarm bell with improved directive public announcements. During the evacuation, twelve video cameras and seven observers in the setting recorded the passengers’ behaviour in all spaces of the station. Analysis showed that the passengers’ behaviour varied depending on the information provided. Evacuations 4 and 5 proved to be the most successful at prompting appropriate responses. |
