Popis: One of the biggest issues facing the entire globe today is accidents involving pedestrians. In India, a developing and highly populated nation, some of the causes of these accidents include pedestrians who are not following traffic regulations. Scientists have occasionally shown an interest in pedestrian behavior and the variables that influence it. Researchers have tried a variety of methods to increase safety, but a workable strategy must be developed for the comfort of pedestrians. The primary motivation for this research was to use questionnaire surveys and video recording techniques to examine pedestrians according to their age, gender, and crossing behavior at 3 of the busiest intersections in Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh. Pedestrians were questioned and were video graphed. Some remedial measures we adopted at the intersections are pedestrian refuge island, foot over bridge sidewalks , pedestrian ramps and crosswalk. This will provide a version for raising pedestrian awareness of the rules and regulations to help them avoid conflicts with drivers.
