Abstract
Recently, urban regeneration and safety plans are being developed in the areas near some large-scale terminal stations. It becomes more important to understand various issues in disaster situation and take necessary structural and non-structural countermeasures near the terminal stations. Firstly, this paper overviewed the characteristics of expected hazards of earthquake and flood near the large-scale terminal stations. Then, focusing on Senju area, Adachi ward in Tokyo which has high risk of earthquake, flood and combination of these (complex disaster), it estimated the number of population of the crowd near the station such as residents, workers and evacuees according to the time in case of disasters. It then analyzed the necessary capacity of evacuation centers and compared it with the affected population. Finally, it pointed out current issues and suggested necessary countermeasures in this area.
