Planning for pedestrians

Description

Planning for pedestrians involves designing and managing urban spaces to prioritize safe, accessible, and efficient movement for people on foot. This strategy addresses issues such as traffic hazards, inadequate sidewalks, and poor connectivity by implementing measures like pedestrian zones, crosswalks, traffic calming, and barrier-free pathways. Its core purpose is to enhance walkability, reduce accidents, promote public health, and ensure equitable mobility, thereby remedying the marginalization of pedestrians in car-centric environments.
