MORR Transportation Consulting Ltd. created a new national Pedestrian Crossing Control Guide for Canada.  The main objective of this Guide is to promote uniformity across the country with respect to the approach used in the provision of pedestrian crossing control, while improving road safety for these users. 

The new Pedestrian Crossing Control Guide introduces a set of guiding principles to inform engineers during the decision-making process associated with the provision of pedestrian crossing control. These principles are intended to help ensure a comprehensive, holistic approach to pedestrian mobility, safety, and accessibility is followed by professionals involved in the planning, design, operations, and maintenance of road networks.
