I agree with Bruce - try to design ped facilities 'in parallel', try not to
go further down the 'inefficient design' road. You would clearly require at
least 1.4x the overall time currently given to peds on conventional
crossings (to allow for the diagonal - more once the corner radii are
accounted for) - which will potentially create more congestion and/or
require the cycle time to be increased.Such designs could potentially
assist authorities in failing two 'LTP2' indicators in future years (one on
congestion & one on high ped delay?)!
