    The Implementation of Scramble Crossings in Metro Manila: by Carl Benedict Dee and Relexys Vista

    This document discusses the implementation of scramble crossings in Metro Manila to improve pedestrian safety. A scramble crossing temporarily stops all vehicle traffic to allow pedestrians to cross intersections in any direction. This improves safety as it eliminates conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles. International examples show scramble crossings can increase pedestrian crossing rates by 64.3% where applicable. The document recommends a pilot of scramble crossings at busy intersections in Manila to make walking and street crossing safer.

    THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SCRAMBLE CROSSINGS IN

    METRO MANILA

    BY CARL BENEDICT DEE AND RELEXYS VISTA


    SCRAMBLE CROSSING

    SHIBUYA SCRAMBLE CROSSING HOLLYWOOD AND HIGHLAND REMODELLED LONDON’S


    SCRAMBLE CROSSING OXFORD CIRCUS
    INTRODUCTION

     A pedestrian scramble, also known as scramble intersection and scramble corner in


    Canada, 'X' Crossing in the UK, diagonal crossing in the US, exclusive pedestrian
    interval, or Barnes Dance, is a type of traffic signal movement that temporarily
    stops all vehicular traffic, thereby allowing pedestrians to cross an intersection in
    every direction, including diagonally, at the same time.
     A scramble crossing keeps pedestrians safe by temporarily shutting down all
    traffic to vehicles for a duration of 15 seconds, allowing people to cross the
    intersection from all corners to any direction.
    HENRY BARNES
    LITERATURE REVIEW

     For 15 seconds, pedestrians cross diagonally at every corner at the intersection.


     When there are not two-lane roadways in four-legged intersection, the increase
    rate is 64.3%.
     Promotion of pedestrian priority and the relief of pedestrian congestion on more
    traditional orthogonal crossings and footways particularly where pedestrian
    volumes are very high
    CONCLUSION

     The government’s solutions simply aren’t effective.


     Growing population = more vehicles
     Implementation of scramble crossings can be a more sustainable solution.
     Walking and crossing streets become safer.
     May be applied to locations that have heavy pedestrian volume.
    RECOMMENDATION
