Before the Step: A Visual Attention–Based Guide for Safer Pedestrian Crossing

Design recommendations for safer pedestrian crossing, developed from the identified visual attention mechanisms before crossing initiation, provide practical guidance for transport planners and street designers to review how crossing environments present critical traffic information. The recommendations focus on improving traffic visibility, reducing competing visual information, and supporting stable visual search, helping identify what is already working and where the crossing environment can be improved to support clearer and safer pedestrian decisions.
