dc.description.abstractA pedestrian crossing is a location on a street which is designated for pedestrians to cross streets. According to the National Council for Road Safety (NCRS), more than 900 fatalities have occurred due to the crashes on or near pedestrian crossings during past 10 years in Sri Lanka. However, little research has been carried out in this regard. This study identified issues related to design of pedestrian crossings in Colombo area through observations and interviewing both road users and law enforcement authorities. This study highlights issues related to pedestrian crossing designs and give recommendations in accordance with international standards to make them safe for all road users.en_US
