Pedestrian crossovers help pedestrians to safely cross the street

Image shows a mother and son walking across a pedestrian crossover painted on the road with thick white stripes, along with a road sign that says “Stop for pedestrians” and text over the image that states “Pedestrian Crossovers.”

Pedestrian crossovers make it safer and easier for pedestrians to cross the street. Our video outlines the roles and responsibilities of drivers, cyclists and pedestrians to help everyone safely navigate the crossovers.

Pedestrian crossovers are in accordance with provincial legislation and are part of our commitment to Durham Vision Zero—a long-term, multi-agency strategy to create safer roads. Learn more at durham.ca/VisionZero.
