We are coming under increasing pressure to provide pedestrian routes through junctions which appear direct to the pedestrians. Whereas previously we would have tried to stagger separately controlled movements to make it clear that they were separate crossings and to avoid problems with seeing the wrong ped signals, we are now being asked to line them up as for a straight across crossing. I appreciate that by using nearside pedestrian signals the problems associated with seeing the wrong ped head can be removed, all be it with a risk of seeing no ped head. However, is it reasonable to assume that it will be clear to users that the individual crossings should be treated separately? I would welcome any views or experiences that others may have had with regards to using 'un-staggered' crossings. ________________________________________________________________________ Unless otherwise expressly stated, nothing in this e-mail shall, as between the City Council and the recipient and/or any other party, be deemed to constitute any contract or order or create any kind of contractual relationship. __________________________________________________________________________________ THE FOLLOWING WARNING IS GIVEN IS RESPECT OF ANY ATTACHMENTS 1.
