Smart crossing for Pedestrian Safety

Ensuring safety at pedestrian crossings is a crucial aspect of traffic organization. To address this, new technologies are increasingly being utilized to improve road safety. With the safety of all road users in mind, Euroasfalt presents the Smart Crossing solution.

A Smart Crossing is an intelligent system designed to enhance the safety of both pedestrians and drivers. These crossings are activated only when necessary, ensuring that the system works efficiently and minimizes unnecessary signals. The goal of Smart Crossings is to protect pedestrians when they are on or near the crossing.

SmartPass – Intelligent Pedestrian Crossing System

SmartPass is an advanced intelligent crossing system that alerts drivers when a pedestrian is present at a crossing. The system is equipped with synchronized components that include:

AI motion sensors to detect pedestrian in a smart way,

Hardwire road studs (S-4 dynamic or S-4 D/N) to improve visibility,

Active road signs with warning lamps (day / night mode),
Central Unit with a rechargeable battery provides up to 3 days of autonomy.
Cloud portal for data gathering (i.e. pedestrian counting)
Enhance with: smart illumination, anti-skid system and sound module

Below is a selection of some of the hundreds of smart crossing locations where SmartPass enhances safety and saves lives every day.

Certified and Fully Compliant with Regulations

All components of the SmartPass system have the required certifications, technical approvals, or national technical assessments. This ensures that the Smart Crossing system complies with Polish building laws and the regulations of the Ministry of Infrastructure, making it the only fully compliant intelligent pedestrian crossing solution in Poland.

Proven Effectiveness of Smart Crossings

The SmartPass system is the only road safety solution in Poland that has been scientifically tested by the Warsaw University of Technology and the Institute of Roads and Bridges. The studies confirmed significant improvements in road safety and pedestrian comfort after implementing SmartPass at crossings:

Reduction in collisions,
Decrease in vehicle speeds near crossings,
Increase in the number of drivers yielding to pedestrians,
Shorter waiting times for pedestrians.

The full safety analysis, titled “Smart Crossings – Final Report” is available for review. It details the effectiveness of intelligent crossings in improving road safety.

Additionally, the findings have been published in the renowned international journal Sustainability in an article titled “Active Signage of Pedestrian Crossings as a Tool in Road Safety Management” The article highlights research conducted on Smart Crossings in Warsaw, showcasing their impact on improving pedestrian safety.

Variants of SmartPass Smart Crossings

The SmartPass intelligent pedestrian crossing system is an alternative to traditional crossings equipped with traffic lights. It is available in four variants:

SC Standard
SC Standard Plus
SC Premium
SmartPass

Each Smart Crossing is equipped with an intelligent pedestrian identification system. The system ensures that safety elements, such as active road studs and LED lamps, are activated only when a pedestrian approaches the crossing. This feature ensures that drivers are more attentive to pedestrians, as visual signals are triggered by actual pedestrian movement rather than operating continuously.
