| Summary: | Pedestrian accident ranks second in Bandung and crossing activity is risky for
pedestrians. The government has implemented standards for crossing facility
infrastructure to improve public safety, as an example Pelican Crossing which has
been integrated with traffic sign system. But in some cases it is less effective
regardless due to the limitation on certain standards and one of the causes in
pedestrian accidents is human behavior itself. This research is focused to
manipulate the user behavior through products and systems design in the context
of 'pre-event' or accident prevention. Mixed research method was carried out
qualitatively through observation on Jalan Pahlawan, Bandung as a case study and
then compared with quantitative data of related traffic standards. The results show
some facility anomalies and crossing behavior caused by the unproper crossing
procedures and the function of crossing facilities that are less user friendly. The
findings are used as main material and reference for further Pelican Crossing
design development with smart and intuitive features as an alternative to more
flexible and user-friendly crossing solutions. |
