Infrastructure facilities and traffic control mechanisms that separate pedestrians from motor <br />vehicles and enable pedestrians to cross roads safely are important mechanisms to ensure <br />pedestrian safety, complementing vehicle speed and road system management." <br />References for Module 1: <br />4.
