To Study Pedestrian Safety at Undesignated Urban Midblock Section by User’s Perception

Due to lack of pedestrian walking and crossing facilities pedestrian mostly used regular traffic lane. Continuously increase in motor vehicles increases chances of collision with pedestrians. In such scenario, pedestrian safety is an important issue in most of the developing countries. In developing countries like India. Pedestrian behaviour is prime important in order to provide better safety to the most vulnerable road users and to arrest illegal crossing of pedestrians and reduce crash at such location in urban area. User's perception is very much powerful tool to carry out such behavioural study. The present study has been carried out with the objectives to analysed pedestrian safety at undesignated midblock section using user's perception. Pedestrian's perception information will be collected different high-density urban area with help of Questionnaire form survey. Collected Pedestrian different characteristics data such as Socio-economical characteristics data, Crossing characteristic data, Behaviour characteristic data, Traffic Characteristics data. Also ask to pedestrian regarding safety and risk. To collected pedestrian perception behaviour information through Questionnaire survey. Analysed pedestrian safety at undesignated midblock section at five scale rating. Survey is conducted at Ahmedabad; India and 78 sample of questionnaire survey is collected. Analysis of data was further analysed to assess safety perspective of pedestrian. Based on analysis results people having habits to cross at undesignated midblock section. Education and purpose not affected the safety. Citation: Bhaveshkumar Natvarbhai Parmar, Hareshkumar Dahyabhai Golakiya, Pinakin N. Patel, Ashish Dhamaniya, Laxmansinh B. Zala.
