9.4 Uncontrolled crossings
Uncontrolled pedestrian crossings should be
located on pedestrian desire lines at side roads
or at signalised junctions without pedestrian
phases as a ‘walk with traffic’ facility. The
pedestrian does not have priority over vehicles
at these crossings and has to seek safe crossing
opportunities when traffic is held on a red signal.
