Abstract: Abstract This contributionBukáček, Marek provides a microscopicHrabák, Pavel experimental study of pedestrianKrbálek, Milan motion in front of the bottleneck, and explains the high variance of individual travel time by the statistical analysis of trajectories. The analysis shows that this heterogeneity increases with increasing occupancy. Some participants were able to reach lower travel times due to more efficient path selection and more aggressive behaviour within the crowd. Based on this observations, a linear model predicting travel time with respect to the aggressiveness of pedestrian is proposed.
