Looking at the statistics, I was horrified to learn how many pedestrians are killed each year in our cities. They are undoubtedly among the most vulnerable road users. My first question was how this could happen when we have the technology to prevent these tragedies. Schréder has developed specific and affordable solutions to improve safety in these spaces where vulnerable users meet vehicles. Because accidents there often have tragic consequences. The quality of the lighting of pedestrian crossings is directly related to the level of danger. Together with our stakeholders, we share a responsibility to support cities in reducing road deaths, and we continue to invest to improve safety for all. Pedestrian fatalities are not inevitable

Some key concepts
A visible colour contrast
The contrast created by a different colour temperature from the surrounding road lighting is an effective way to highlight the pedestrian crossing and attract drivers’ attention.
10
Pedestrian in the driver’s eyes
In urban areas, the driver’s attention is naturally focused about 100 metres ahead, at an angle of about 5°. It is therefore important that the pedestrian appears early enough in his field of vision. Vertical illumination of the pedestrian should enable the driver to see the pedestrian and react accordingly. At 50 km/h, an average motorist needs about 43 metres to stop.

Regulations and standards What do the rules say?
Pedestrian crossings are sections of the road where good interaction between pedestrians and drivers is vital. Adequate
lighting is essential to create the safest conditions for all.
12
Suitable lighting improves safety at pedestrian crossings, which need to be visible in various weather conditions and at different times of the day. It provides the best conditions for drivers to understand the traffic situation and recognise the pedestrian’s silhouette, and for pedestrians to be aware of their surroundings, the pedestrian crossings themselves and approaching vehicles. The CIE gives recommendations and guidelines concerning the rules and levels for road lighting (including pedestrian crossings), as well as calculation procedures and methods of measurement. National standardisation bodies then convert these recommendations into local standards . At the international level, there is no harmonised definition for appropriate pedestrian crossing lighting and how to design it. However, existing regulations generally recommend a high level of contrast . They emphasise that pedestrians should be distinguished, mainly by the level of light intensity or the colour of the light.
Positive contrast solutions are favoured for pedestrian crossings illuminated by dedicated luminaires with asymmetrical light distribution . These luminaires have specific light distributions, adapted to the location of the luminaire being on the right or left side of the road and to the traffic direction.
SOME BASIC PRINCIPLES APPLY GENERALLY:
- The horizontal illuminance on the pedestrian crossing should equal to 3 times the horizontal illuminance of the roadway at the edge of the crossing (but should be less than 4 times greater); - Horizontal and vertical illuminance calculation zones should extend over the full width of the roadway and the width of the pedestrian crossing, including waiting areas.

What’s next?
Towards a new dedicated approach
A working group including the Foundation for Civil Engineering Development, the Universities of Gdańsk and Warsaw, and the Research Institute of Roads and Bridges came recently came up with guidelines for pedestrian crossing
positive contrast for pedestrian silhouettes observed from the driver’s perspective. This approach considers the luminance requirements of the road lighting class and the light reflected on pedestrians. These guidelines are not yet translated into regulations and standards, but might be soon, as normalisation bodies are currently busy revising their recommendations.

Our solutions
Specific optics available for a wide range of luminaires
More than half of all fatalities are due to traffic collisions that occur after dark, even though traffic is much lighter at night than during the day.
With quality lighting, the number of road accidents decreases by an average of about 30%, and by up to three times in the best conditions. The driver’s ability to spot hazards and avoid accidents is compromised in case of poorly lit pedestrian crossings. Proper lighting significantly improves visibility, increases the driver’s field of vision, makes obstacles more visible and allows them to be detected earlier.
Schréder has a long history of success in improving the safety of pedestrian crossings. Our advanced LED technology, combined with our state-of-the-art optics designed specifically for these applications, provides the perfect photometries to help cities reduce the risk of accidents involving motorists and pedestrians.

Schréder designed LensoFlex ® 2 and LensoFlex ® 4 Zebra optics to meet the challenge of making pedestrian crossings safer while keeping the aesthetical consistency for lighting furniture in the urban landscape. has
Our dedicated optics provide visual comfort for both motorists and pedestrians to help them share the public space in a safer manner. The asymmetrical light distributions offer a high vertical illuminance level on the pedestrian from the driver’s position. At the same time, the pedestrian crossing itself receives a high horizontal illuminance level, revealing its position from a good distance.
White light combined with a sharp asymmetrical light distribution provides a very efficient solution for lighting pedestrian crossings. Our luminaires for pedestrian crossings have a high level of tightness (at least IP 66), in order to maintain the initial performance for as long as possible over the lifetime of the installation.

The bracket you need for a perfect result
When the pole is located too far back from the street, post-top mounting is not ideal from a photometrical perspective. It would be best if you had a bracket of the right length to position the luminaire correctly and optimise the light distribution on the pedestrian crossing . With more than 30 ranges of brackets, from a contemporary to a heritage design and adapted to various luminaire mountings, Schréder can surely provide the solution you need.

Real-time adaptation
With EXEDRA, Schréder relies on open standards and protocols to design an architecture able to interact seamlessly with third-party systems and platforms . A good example of this is what we offered to the City of Brussels. We provide them with an innovative smart street lighting system along the ‘Bois de la Cambre’, a large urban park in the south of the City. There, we linked the luminaires to real-time data feeds in order to maximise safety, comfort and energy savings. This data was not captured by sensors installed on the luminaires but through online platforms on the Internet. Three types of existing and real-time data were used to trigger scenarios: • weather; • traffic; • location of pedestrian crossings. The data coming from the third-party platforms enabled the Schréder EXEDRA system to provide the optimal lighting levels at each light point and, if necessary, adapt the lighting every 15 minutes to real-time conditions.
