Abstract: | As a weaker in the transport system, pedestrians deserve special protection. However, there are few relatively studies on road lighting and pedestrian protection. By analyzing the visual requirements of pedestrians for road lighting, this paper summarizes the evaluation index of road lighting: illumination level, uniformity, lighting in surrounding environment and glare restrictions. Then the author discusses the impact on pedestrian safety. By studying the weakest components of the transportation system - "one person" in the context of increasing motorization increases the psychological stress and risk of accidents, drawing some conclusions that good road lighting can increase the sense of security for pedestrians, but the excessive color quality will increasing pressure on the environment,which can give engineers, urban planners and city managers some ideas and rational suggestions during lighting design |
