Near to locations such as sheltered accommodation or care homes frail pedestrians are particularly likely to be crossing roads. They often walk more slowly than other pedestrians and thus take more time to cross the road. They are also more likely to have sensory impairments such as hearing impairment or sight degradation meaning less awareness of traffic.
How to map
Frail pedestrian hazards may be mapped in the following ways:
- Place a node
at the location of the frail pedestrians hazard traffic sign, tagged traffic_sign=hazard (or code) + hazard=frail_pedestrians. - Tag a node along a highway=* way
at the location of the sign - Tag the section of highway=* where the frail pedestrians hazard is present.
