abstract="This study investigates changes in pedestrian speed behavior following the implementation of a scramble phase. The aim is to demonstrate the feasibility of automatic collection of pedestrian data; and to study pedestrian speed variations with respect to design changes to intersection crossings. The results show that the average crossing speed is higher after the implementation of the scramble phase. Within the scramble, the average crossing speed is higher for diagonal crossing than side crosswalk crossing. The average crossing speed is lower for pedestrians crossing during the Walk interval. Pedestrians have higher speed through the first half of the crosswalk.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
