A Study on the Boarding Environment of the Dock for Ship Boarding - Focused on Excursion Ship Terminal in Busan -

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.
