Pedestrian Crossings
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 12 January 2026 to Question 101859, when her Department's work with Active Travel England on research into side road zebra crossings began; and when she expects that work to conclude.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
Active Travel England’s Inclusive Crossings Research is currently underway. In 2024, Active Travel England commissioned Transport for West Midlands to undertake research at the University of Warwick to evaluate the usability, safety, and design of side road zebra crossings, particularly for disabled pedestrians, and to inform future design specifications.
The data collection for the project primarily took place in the autumn of 2024 and into early 2025. Work to analyse and report on the findings has subsequently been undertaken and it is expected that the project will conclude later in 2026.
