Inclusive design at bus stops with cycle tracks: Appendix 1 - (DETAILED STUDY SITES)

3 Apr 2024

The table below records the result, with ‘p’ signifying the presence of at least one pedestrian on the track, and ‘c’ signifying a car or other vehicle sitting across the track (at the exit of Dalhousie Street). [...] One of the zebra crossings is to an area of the multi-use strip which is on the ‘wrong’ side of the advertising panel and looks to have been intended to provide support to cross the whole carriageway, but there is no corresponding zebra crossing of the carriageway itself. [...] The ‘tail’ of this extends to the edge of the pavement, providing a means to identify the crossing location (and the bus stop). [...] There is a signalised crossing of the carriageway from the bus stop island to a substantial island of pavement sitting between the carriageway and the cycle track on the opposite side of the carriageway. [...] There appears to be a problem caused by the presence of the advertising panel to the north end of the bus shelter (sitting beside the front of the bus with the green roof in the above images).
