This paper concerns a review of the existing research in pedestrian behavior in rail transit terminal. A comprehensive review of the existing method and model are looking at the parameters of the pedestrian behavior and flow in relation to the pedestrian interaction and evacuation planning in rail transit terminal. It is shown in the review that a lack of an overall and detailed consideration of pedestrian behavior studies along the area of rail transit terminal in Malaysia. The necessity to integrate transportation engineering and pedestrian model is important where it will be a start to an upcoming research related to a development of safety management system of pedestrian in term of evacuation strategies and performances in rail transit. This can be a reference point for the traffic engineer to design walking infrastructures for many other public transit areas in Malaysia.
