Abstract :
Pedestrian crossings are one of the most dangerous places on the road, so it is important to pay close attention to their design. At present, the greatest emphasis is mainly on the lighting, which is not always realized in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. On the lighting crossings are used different types of lamps with different types of light sources that are used to light problematic space as well as for signaling danger in the surrounding area.
