daylighting: WORTH KNOWING WEDNESDAYS







“Daylighting” intersections to improve visibility for drivers is an effective way to make crosswalks safer for pedestrians.


It's a process that pays close attention to the schematics of the street where most crashes occur: the corners of crossings. The idea is that if intersections are clear of obstructions like parked cars — or “brighter,” to follow the expression — then drivers, pedestrians and cyclists would all be able to see one another better. Better sightlines, less likelihood of crashes, the formula goes.
