Pedestrian Crossings Review

Horsham Rural City Council is currently reviewing the effectiveness and public response to the newly installed pedestrian crossings in the city centre.

This initiative aims to determine which of the six new crossings are most effective and which are least helpful to the community.

The new crossings include a mix of zebra crossings, raised ‘wombat’ crossings, and traffic islands, all designed to enhance the walkability of Horsham’s city centre.

These crossings are intended to provide safer and more convenient options for pedestrians, including those using mobility scooters.

Council is keen to hear from both drivers and pedestrians about their experiences with the new crossings.

Feedback from the community will be collected through a short questionnaire, which aims to gather insights on the usability and effectiveness of each crossing type.

Residents are encouraged to participate in the survey to help the Council make informed decisions on future pedestrian infrastructure improvements.

Survey is not currently open. Further feedback will be sought after the Council Election Period
