Permission To Cross – The Ranty Highwayman

The technique requires continuous surveys to be undertaken with pedestrian and traffic flows. Pedestrian crossing flows are taken within 50 metres of either side of the proposed crossing site (which should try and pick an “average” crossing position if it is not clear) and both traffic and pedestrian flows in both directions added. The counts of pedestrians within 50 metres assumes that a crossing will see people within 50 metres migrating to it.
