6. Recommendations

  • Guidelines on where to install pedestrian platforms with detailed design features are desirable for national consistency in the design and use of pedestrian platforms.
  • RCAs should design and install pedestrian platforms in accordance with Traffic Note 2 until such time as more detailed guidelines are developed.
  • There should be clear demarcation between footpaths and pedestrian platforms.

Note: A working group convened by TRAFINZ is preparing a guideline for pedestrian facilities. The guideline will include details for the design and use of pedestrian platforms. Data from this survey of pedestrian platforms has been made available to the working group.
