Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, citizens advocate greater environmental sustainability, better services and the improvement of urban quality by promoting safer mobility and health. Addressing these issues, Pedestrians, Urban spaces and Health contains the papers presented at the XXIV International Conference "Living and Walking in Cities" (Brescia, Italy, 12-13 September 2019). The contributions discuss town planning issues, look at best practices and research findings across the broad spectrum of urban and transport planning, with particular attention to the safety of pedestrians in the city. The main topics of the book are: Walking experiences Urban spaces and Redevelopment Healthy cities (as Urban resilience and for Weakest users) Pedestrians, Urban spaces and Health is a powerful plea for a multi-disciplinary and comprehensive approach to urban mobility and planning, and will be of interest to academics, consultants and practitioners interested in these areas.

Download or read book Investigation of Exposure Based Pedestrian Accident Areas written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous FHWA research on pedestrian exposure identified four problem areas as promising candidates for accident reduction: intersections without marked pedestrian crosswalks, major arterial streets, local streets, and locations lacking sidewalks or pedestrian pathways. This report describes the results of a project undertaken to examine those four problem areas. The objectives of the project were to: evaluate past research on pedestrian crosswalk markings and develop guidance for when and what type of crosswalk markings should be provided; investigate traffic engineering improvements for major arterial streets to increase pedestrian safety; investigate traffic engineering improvements for local streets to increase pedestrian safety; and examine existing guidance/warrants for the provision of pedestrian pathways and sidewalks and prepare revised guidance/warrants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2464 consists of papers that address a safety performance study of shared pedestrian and vehicle space; impacts of alternative yield sign placement on pedestrian safety; mitigation of pedestrian-vehicle conflicts at stop-controlled t-intersections; development of a low-cost methodology for evaluating pedestrian safety in support of complete streets policy implementation; walkability indicators for pedestrian-friendly designs; driver approach speed and its impact on driver yielding to pedestrian behavior at unsignalized crosswalks; pedestrian protection airbags; driver and pedestrian behaviors at enhanced, multilane, midblock pedestrian crossings; and influences of light rail, built environment, and residential self-selection on pedestrian travel. This issue of the TRR also examines pedestrian and bicyclist compliance and safety impacts of walk modes at signalized intersections; long-term impacts of California Safe Routes to School program; impacts of intersection design on pedestrians' choice to cross on red; data-driven approaches to coordinate engineering, education, and enforcement; a planning-level model for assessing pedestrian safety; walking behaviors by trip purposes; a perception-based walkability index; far-side audible beaconing of accessible pedestrian signals; and closed-course study of driver detection of pedestrians beyond flashing beacons within sign assembly.
