To assess the comfort of use of the structures designed for human use during its vibrations it is necessary to know the requirement of the comfort criteria for the specific type of the structure. In the paper the issue of evaluation of the footbridges vibrations acceptability along with proposal of comfort criteria for the footbridges elaborated on the basis of survey researches were presented. The proposal of the vibration comfort criteria taking into account frequency of vibrations occurrence (frequent, rare and exceptional events) were characterized and compared with propositions of other authors, standards and recommendations.
