Pedestrian Accessibility and Movement Environment Laboratory

The Pedestrian Accessibility and Movement Environment Laboratory (PAMELA) was a research facility located in Upper Holloway, part of the University College London in the United Kingdom.

It was designed to study human interactions in controlled conditions by replicating real-world environments such as urban streets and public parks. The laboratory had an 80-square-metre (860 sq ft) artificial pavement platform which was used to simulate everyday scenarios, from different types of pedestrians to varying pavement conditions.^[1] Its experiments were intended to create safer streets and more user-friendly public spaces.^[2]

PAMELA in Upper Holloway was replaced by PEARL (Person-Environment-Activity Research Laboratory) in the London East Business and Technical Park, Dagenham.^[3]
