MESSAGES IN ACCORDANCE WITH STANDARD DRAWINGS, GENERAL NOTES AND SPECIFICATIONS

ADDITION OF CROSSWALKS

RECOMMENDATION

PEDESTRIAN: INTEGRATE THE NEEDS OF PEDESTRIANS AT THE

EARLIEST STAGES OF URBAN PLANNING PROJECTS AND TRANSPORT INVESTMENTS.

ESTABLISH CLEAR ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT FOR COORDINATION OF INITIATIVES TO PROMOTE WALKING.

IMPROVE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT WALKING. DEVELOP CAR-FREE AREAS, DISCOURAGE OVER-

USE OF CARS IN CITY CENTERS, AND PREVENT PARKING ON PAVEMENTS AND PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS
