Posted By Martin Taylor Malcolm - Is uspect that thre is no definitive figure and that it would be based on risk assessment based upon:- expected volume of pedestrian traffic (including break times, shift change etc) and the need for people to pass easily. the vehilcula traffic volume that I expect you are trying to segregate the pedestrians from. Probably teaching you how to suck eggs here but I would suggest that the pedestrian way should be as wide as possible without interfering with the safety of the vehicular route. In my experience if you do not keep the route wide enough pedestrians will actually use the 'road' in preference to the 'path'. One last thought - leave sufficient access routes to the pathway to allow people to leave and enter without undue diversion. If you want to discuss any further please drop me an email regards MT
