Abstract：

Pedestrian　traffic　plays　an　important　part　in　traffic　systems.　Pedestrian　traffic　violation,　rather　than　vehicles,　is　one　of　the　main　causes　of　traffic　accidents　at　at-grade　intersections.　In　this　article,　in　order　to　analyze　various　behavior　responses　to　the　red　indication,　the　end　of　a　green　phase　and　red　phase,　field　observations,　videos,　and　questionnaires　were　undertaken　to　collect　field　data　for　the　research.　Conclusions　were　made　and　potential　improvements　were　recommended.　The　research　provided　theoretical　support　on　setting　pedestrian　crossing　parameters.　©　2011　ASCE.
