Accidents involving pedestrian at signalized intersections are major safety issue in developing countries such as India. A significant proportion of pedestrian accidents reported at intersections are primarily due to violation behavior of pedestrians. The objective of this study is to analyze pedestrian road crossing behavior and factors affecting their signal violation propensity at urban signalized intersections. Data is collected through video recording technique in New Delhi, India. Chi-square and t-test are performed to identify statistically significant explanatory variables. Pedestrian signal violation behavior is modelled using binomial logistic regression. Pedestrian personal attributes and situational factors are found to have significant association with signal violation behavior and the model has significant predictive capability. Interventions focusing on behavioral modifications, such as increasing pedestrian safety awareness would be most effective in reducing violation, though engineering measures might also be useful. The findings would certainly help city planners, policy makers and designers in deeper understanding of pedestrian behavior to improve safety at urban signalized intersections.
