From Tuesday's Halifax edition of Metro:

The professor leading a review of thousands of collision reports across Nova Scotia says it confirms that reducing pedestrian-vehicle collisions is a shared responsibility.

鈥淏oth user types should be very cautious in making connections when they are crossing those crosswalks,鈥� said Dr. Ahsan Habib, director of the Dalhousie Transportation Collaboratory. 鈥淲e have to share this road space, and be safe.鈥�

Four pedestrians have been hit in marked crosswalks across HRM in the last four days, bringing the total number of such incidents to 33 for the year.

Habib and his research team combed through collision reports filed across the province between 2007 and 2011 to assess the contributing factors in motor vehicle collisions, fatal accidents and accidents involving bicycles and pedestrians.

They found that 52 per cent of all pedestrian collisions took place in marked crosswalks or at marked intersections, which should be treated as crosswalks.
