Laurie WinklessMy March story for @forbes has just gone live. It's all about pedestrian crossings and how the timings they're based on no longer match the demographics of our cities - research from the University of Bath
Future SprogReally interesting the considerations that went into setting the timing for those crossings.
A trial introduced in Singapore a few years back allowed people to tap their transit card at the pedestrian crossing. If they were a senior then the crossing phase would be longer. “Green Man Plus”: https://www.mot.gov.sg/what-we-do/motoring-road-network-and-infrastructure/inclusive-transport-infrastructure/
@futuresprog yes! Max actually mentioned that during our interview. Very interesting concept. Singapore is miles ahead on supporting its older population to stay living in their communities
