Crossings
In urban planning and transportation, "crossings" refer to designated points where pedestrians, cyclists, or vehicles pass through intersections or crossing zones, such as crosswalks or pedestrian bridges. They are carefully planned areas ensuring safe and efficient movement across roads or paths. Proper crossings include marked lanes, signals, and sometimes tactile elements to enhance safety and accessibility. By managing where and how different modes of travel intersect, crossings help prevent accidents, reduce congestion, and facilitate smooth, harmonious flow of traffic and foot traffic in busy areas.
