In this study, we studied a scheme for proposal of effective evacuation route at large fire disaster in a historic town with traditional heritage. As methodology, firstly we set a study model area Hizenhamashuku which is a designated preservation area of traditional buildings located in Kashima city, Saga prefecture. Then, we analyzed evacuation time based on residents' perception on their evacuations in the area. Namely, we set temporary safe places from each house, three primary evacuation places, and target time of evacuation, as a scheme for proposal of evacuation route, then we calculate evacuation times using a multi-agent system, SimTread that is on the market. Finally, we analyze the problematic places abstracted from the simulation to find measures for effective evacuation improvements. We can show the effectiveness of the scheme for proposal of evacuation routes at large fire disaster.
