Pedestrian path on campus

         Walailak University has developed a comprehensive pedestrian pathway system that connects all major campus buildings. These walkways are equipped with adequate lighting and safety barriers that clearly separate pedestrian areas from vehicle traffic. Handrails are installed in certain areas to enhance safety, particularly where there are differences in elevation. All walkways are covered with roofs to protect users from unfavorable weather conditions, such as intense sunlight or heavy rain. In addition, the pathways are designed with gentle slopes to accommodate changes in elevation and ensure accessibility for all, including individuals with special mobility needs. The surfaces are constructed with durable and flexible materials to maximize comfort and usability, while clear signage and location information are provided along the routes to assist navigation.

        This infrastructure reflects the Universitys commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and sustainable campus environment, while also promoting lowcarbon mobility within the campus.
