Book nowCIHT Cymru Wales is excited to offer this joint CPD webinar on Side Road Zebras in collaboration with ICE, CILT, TfW and Welsh Government. We will hear from Kaarina Ruta, head of road safety policy at Welsh Government, Teresa Guerreiro, design lead (highways and streets) at Transport for Wales and Keith Firth, director of traffic and transport at Norman Rourke Pryme, on how we go from policy to implementation on side road zebras and the benefits these can deliver in road safety and accessibility.
This presentation will provide an overview of the legislative changes, the policy objectives behind them, and the accompanying guidance to support consistent implementation across Wales. We will explore the legal framework in Wales and key design considerations, practical application of the guidance, and lessons from early implementation to help practitioners deliver these crossings effectively and consistently.
The introduction of side road zebra crossings is intended to improve safety and accessibility for people walking and wheeling, helping to create streets that are safer, more inclusive, and better support active travel.
Keith’s presentation will cover the background to the Westminster City Council side road crossings study, the research that underpinned the decision to trial side road Zebra crossings, the results of the monitoring of the dozen SRZ schemes and the positive changes in driver behaviour that have occurred consistently across a variety of locations, environments and traffic conditions, along with next steps in the evolution and adoption of SRZs across the UK.
This event is aimed at transport planners, highway engineers, road safety practitioners and other professionals involved in the design, delivery and management of the highway network.
