Being a pedestrian is essential to travel, but it is also the part of our journey where we’re most vulnerable in the event of a crash. More than 25% of fatalities and serious injuries involve non-car-users, pedestrians are 6% of this number.
The City has more than 2400 kilometres of pathways that link neighbourhoods, schools, foreshores and parks. Nearly everyone is a pedestrian at some stage of their journey; whether between their car and destination, on their way to a bus stop, after parking their bike or across the whole journey.
