In a passenger conveyor, in order to reduce installation dimensions and, more particularly, a height of the passenger conveyor, the passenger conveyor is constructed to be driven by a linear motor, with stators and moving members of the linear motor being formed such that surfaces thereof facing each other are located in horizontal planes and generated magnetic flux of the stators is perpendicular to the facing surfaces. The moving members are mounted on the respective treadboards.
