PREMISE
Pedestrians have a right to safely navigate crosswalks — especially at mid-block crossings and other designated locations. Unfortunately, thousands of preventable injuries and deaths still occur annually, with fatalities remaining elevated in recent years.
To better protect our vulnerable road users, it's important to understand why pedestrian fatalities have been on the rise and how we can combat it. That's why TAPCO partnered with an experienced market research firm to conduct a study on the prevalence and importance of mid-block crosswalks, as well as the most effective pedestrian safety measures. After months of data gathering with 120 municipal traffic engineers and public works employees across the country, we put together a white paper filled with key insights.
Inside Optimizing Pedestrian Safety at Mid-Block Crosswalks, discover everything you need to know about enhancing pedestrian safety — from how other communities are tackling the issue to nationwide trends on the topic.
Annual pedestrian fatalities in the U.S. are enough to fill 31 Boeing 747 planes (GHSA).
