Abstract :
In developing countries, like India, there has been a rapid increase in the pedestrian volumes and traffic-pedestrian conflicts in the last few decades and that calls for increase in the pedestrian safety facilities at mid-block crossings in the CBD area. In the present study video graphic technique was used and the data was collected at different study locations in the CBD area of the city where the high pedestrian flows were observed. The final results were obtained from the questionnaire survey and the data was analysed from composition of respondents. To enhance safety of pedestrians at mid-block crossings under mixed traffic conditions. In future there is a need to improve the pedestrian safety facilities at mid-block crossings in urban areas
