| Abstract |
Various accidents can occur during the process of boarding transportation. Among them, the act of boarding a ship can be more dangerous
due to it occurring at sea, unlike public transportation that’s on land. However, the boarding environment of ships is inadequate compared to
land transportation. This study aims to uncover the dock environment with a focus on excursion ships by analyzing legal issues related to the
boarding of ships, the space, and facilities of an excursion ship terminal. Compared to the laws and regulations imposed on boarding land
public transportation, detailed regulations placed on each facility were insufficient; the excursion ship terminal required facility standards for
each boarding passenger. The waiting area and elevation area of the terminal were places that did not have basic facilities subject to the law
and were narrow spaces expected to accommodate the boarding capacity. Since the side berth has a lower risk of a passenger falling
compared to the front berth, it is recommended that the side berth should use the mooring space of the excursion ship terminal. |
