The content of Highway landscape planning involves the whole view in passengers´ visual field including highway itself. The scenery in passengers´ eyes is just within the highway landscape area that their attention are paid to, so passengers´ visual field must be taken as the control area in highway landscape planning. The speed is regarded as the base of landscape planning control scale, and driver´s attention focus region is defined in the paper. Then highway landscape planning control area is put forward based on the passengers´ dynamic visual behavior characteristics. The driver´s attention focus region was calculated and reckoned as the scale reference for highway landscape planning control area through the analysis of driver´s visual scale in horizontal and vertical vision at different speed, which integrated highways landscape planning with highway functional characteristics and visual demands of passengers to make highway landscape planning and design more scientific and rational.
