1. Introduction

In April/May 1999 the regional offices of the Land Transport Safety Authority (LTSA) conducted surveys of three safety areas in 31 road controlling authorities (RCA). The 31 RCAs included three regional offices of Transit New Zealand and 28 territorial local authorities.

The three safety areas surveyed were:

  • Skid resistance (interview surveys only)
  • Pedestrian platforms (interview and field surveys)
  • Floodlighting pedestrian crossings (interview and field surveys)

This report describes the procedures for the surveys on Floodlighting pedestrian crossings and presents the results.
