Pedestrian crossing points need more intense lighting than footpaths to ensure they are conspicuous to pedestrians and that approaching drivers can see pedestrians clearly. 

  • AS/NZS 1158.3.1:2020 outlines requirements for lighting for pedestrians on local roads, intersections, pedestrian refuges, local area traffic management devices, pathways for pedestrians and cyclists, public activity spaces, connecting elements and car parks.
  • AS/NZS 1158.4:2015 outlines requirements for lighting at pedestrian crossings.
  • AS/NZS 1158.5:2014 outlines requirements for tunnels and underpasses.
