Enhancing Pedestrian Safety: New Urban Initiatives
Specialists from the K.U. "SMEP" are engaged in the installation of delimiting traffic posts and metal posts along pedestrian zones.
These measures promote:
- pedestrian safety – preventing vehicles from entering sidewalks and green spaces;
- orderly parking – discouraging chaotic vehicle parking, especially in narrow areas;
- separation of traffic flows – delimiters help maintain lanes and reduce the risk of traffic accidents.
According to point 11.13 of the Traffic Rules, vehicle movement on sidewalks and pedestrian paths is prohibited. Also, per point 15.10 of the Traffic Rules, parking on sidewalks is likewise prohibited.
Sidewalks are designated spaces for pedestrians, the elderly, and individuals with limited mobility. It is crucial to ensure safety and comfort for pedestrians, particularly near healthcare facilities and areas with high pedestrian traffic.
