Auxiliary Lanes
Overtaking Lanes
• On two lane, two way roads especially where
speeds are high.
• When speeds of vehicles are reduced due to
rolling or mountainous terrain.
Climbing Lanes
• A special form of overtaking lane provided only
on inclines.
• Accidents attributable to the effects of slow
moving trucks are significant.

V. Delineation
Delineation
• The guidance of drivers as they travel along a length
of road is important to provide safe travel conditions.

Pedestrians
• Pedestrians
• A person on foot or in control of a non-motor
vehicle.
• The largest group of road users
• Most vulnerable road user
• Basic rule: A pedestrian should not have to cross
more than two lanes of traffic.
• Pedestrian should not share the road with
vehicles.
VII. Vulnerable Road Users
• SEGREGATION – in space
• SEPARATION - in time
VII. Vulnerable Road Users
Segregation – in space
