Comparisons were made of the numbers of pedestrians crossing specified roads and the numbers of pedestrian casualties on different lengths of approximately eight miles of road, in four towns of relatively equal population. A number of factors influencing the comparison were taken into account, including the presence or proximity of pedestrian crossings and their type, the age and sex of the pedestrians, the level of vehicular flow and the effect of one-way streets. The results of this study were compared with previous results obtained from surveys of pedestrian risk in a larger metropolitan area.
