dc.description	In the contemporary planning practice, there available various methods to understand Safety in Mobility (SM) (Alemian et al., 2010). Yet the possibility to study different scenarios in order to select the best measures to enhance SM is minimum with regard to public spaces. For a space to become a place for everybody, the rhythm of time and the patterns of user behaviour which reflects the level of importance that place generates in the city life is very significant. Since this combination of people, space and time form complex relationships, particularly in public recreation spaces, there arises a crucial necessity to identify the true nature of complexity in order to facilitate safety of the users. In the modern scientific fields, the Agent-based Modelling (ABM) concept is vastly utilised to understand complex systems. The ABM enables the ability to create, analyse and experiment complex systems with models composed with agents that interact within an environment. (Tosto, 2012)	en_US
