This paper is a report of research on evacuation transport support for residents in need of assistance in evacuation on the current road in the city area, assuming evacuation to wide area evacuation sites with the assistance of manually propelled wheelchairs. The experiment was carried out by making four laps (total distance 2,184.4m) on a 546.1m course set on a road with ups and downs and a road longitudinal gradient of 0.25% to 8.41%. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the formulation of evacuation plans by clarifying the possibility of long-distance transportation and the transportation speed, the relationship between the road longitudinal gradient and the transportation speed, etc. regarding evacuation support by manually propelled wheelchairs.
