Abstract

The main research objective was to compare the views of users of Pelican and Puffin pedestrian crossings in terms of perceived ease of use and perceptions of safety. Face-to-face interviews were conducted July-Aug 2005 with pedestrian users of each type of pedestrian crossing: 232 users of Pelicans (10 locations round London); 309 users of Puffins (14 locations round London). As far as was possible, research locations were selected so that the overall sample of Pelicans would be comparable with that of Puffins in terms of vehicle and pedestrian flow, vehicular non-compliance, and road width. ‘Counts’ of vehicle and pedestrian behaviour were also conducted at each selected location to check whether flows at both site groups were comparable.
