- ProTip: Add Crosswalks to the middle of long roads & Quick GuideThere is a slight downside to crosswalks in that heavy pedestrian traffic WILL slow cars down. If you have heavy pedestrian traffic combined with heavy car traffic, it will slow things down considerably. An elevated pedestrian crossing with ground level access on both sides of a road takes care of that problem.
- How to create pedestrian-friendly, car-free city centres?Other ways to make cities pedestrian friendly: put paths linking everything to everything - pedestrians need direct routes (desire lines) to entice them away from using cars. Make some roads dead ends but with pedestrian paths linking through (filtered permeability) - this reduces 'rat-running' (or through traffic using smaller roads).
- |Pedestrian crossing signs in Europe| : r/MapPorn - RedditUK and Ireland does not use this kind of sign for pedestrian crossings, and should simply have been excluded. The triangular sign (and diamond sign for Ireland) is the one warning for an upcoming crossing. The rest of Europe also has such sign, but since the map isn't about the warning sign, therefore those should not be included.

Just an idea. Also putting a train station could help, as it allows cims to get there without driving.
- Pedestrian crossing signs in Europe : r/geoguessr - RedditMost pedestrian crossings here are light-controlled Pelican crossings, so they're not signposted. If you see a Zebra crossing with stripes, cars must stop but they're not as common so they have a pole with a spherical yellow light on top, next to the crossing.
