Abstract: This paper solves the lighting of pedestrian crossings. This type of lighting helps to improve the safety of pedestrians in this conflict area (means a pedestrian crossing). The research was drawn on the basis of measurements of 87 pedestrian crossings in district Ostrava because the regularities can be better understood. Pedestrian crossings were evaluated on the basis of luminance ratio and statistical data of accident rate. This paper also solves the reflectance of clothes which is also important for this research.
Keywords: accident rate; luminance; measurements; pedestrian crossing; reflectance of clothes.; safety
