The Incomplete Street Credit

The Complete Street Credit

Key: C = Candidate sites for marked crosswalks; P = Possible increase in pedestrian crashes may occur if crosswalks are marked without other pedestrian enhancements; N = Marked crosswalks alone are insufficient. Background

Caltrans/ UCB Study: Knowledge of Right-of-Way Laws

Increasing confusion with complexity; Better informed (primary) pedestrians overall Percent correct

Caltrans/ UCB Study: Field Observations

Behavior Observations: Summary of Results  In unmarked crosswalks: –Pace: Peds walk faster –Gaps in Traffic: Peds wait for larger gaps –Yielding: Drivers yield to pedestrians less frequently –Multiple Threat: Peds have a lower potential threat

Multiple Threat Crash Type

Crossing the Complete Street Credit

Our Responsibility “Pedestrians have a right to cross roads safely, and, therefore, planners and engineers have a professional responsibility to plan, design, and install safe crossing facilities.” Zegeer, et al., 2001 FHWA Crosswalk Study
