Abstract: Temporary street activities influence pedestrian movement in public spaces, yet there is no evidence of their influence in shared space environments. Therefore, this paper presents a comparative analysis of the spatial behaviour of pedestrians, cyclists, and motor vehicles in two different shared space schemes in Germany. Their trajectories were extracted from video recordings to evaluate the use of space and speed. The results indicate that a farmers’ market could be considered an influential factor in extending pedestrian movement in the circulation zone and potentially increasing their dominance in the shared space while reducing the speed of all road users.
