Lighting for pedestrian crossing

This document establishes technical requirements for the design and installation of illumination systems at pedestrian crossings. It defines specific luminance levels and uniformity ratios necessary to ensure safety and visibility for individuals walking across roadways. The guidelines cover various lighting configurations, including overhead fixtures and side-mounted lamps, to accommodate different road geometries and traffic conditions. It specifies photometric properties that the luminaires must meet to prevent glare while providing adequate coverage. The scope extends to considerations for maintenance and replacement procedures to sustain consistent performance over time. Particular attention is given to the positioning of light sources relative to the crossing zone and the required duration of illumination during both day and night operations. The text outlines measurement methods for verifying compliance with the defined parameters in the field. It serves as a foundational reference for engineers and planners developing infrastructure projects in the relevant jurisdiction. The content aims to harmonize lighting practices to reduce accidents and improve overall urban mobility safety through standardized technical protocols.
