Abstract The objective of this chapter is to explore an integrated modelling framework that captures pedestrian walking behaviour in congested and uncongested conditions and covers different traffic dynamics caused by complex geometric and operational characteristics such as those observed in transit stations. The integrated modelling framework is built using concepts from the Social Force model, behavioural heuristics, and materials science. Pedestrian trajectory data provided by the Delft University of Technology were used to test the validity of the aforementioned modelling framework. A simulation study showed that the model reproduces realistic trajectory patterns in an environment similar to that at the Foggy Bottom METRO station in Washington, D.C, USA.
