The size of an intersection and its layout affects the ease of crossing for pedestrians. Compact intersections are desirable where more pedestrians cross.
There are additional considerations to provide for pedestrians at intersections whilst still meeting the same principles as for mid-block crossings, for example kerb ramp locations.
Intersections are where a range of travel modes are likely to conflict. There are some important considerations to ensure safety and access for pedestrians is not affected including when mixing with other road users.
Vertical deflection devices, such as raised safety platforms and raised intersections, can be used at intersections to encourage slower vehicle speeds. They can also be designed to assist pedestrians to cross.
