| description | In Malaysia, pedestrian has become a regulartransportation mode with major importance in human society.For pedestrians
to cross the busy main road, crossing facilities is perhaps the most crucial. It is most important to establish a way of
preventing a tragedy and to make the pedestrian aware of the need to perform a safety crossing in order to prevent an
accident. The objectives of study are to investigate the contributing factors that affect pedestrians to use a crossing facility
and to analyse the relationship between the contributing factors and a safe crossing behaviour. In this analysis, Theory
of Planned Behaviour (TPB) was used to explain this outcome and decide whether characteristics and attitude influence
the pedestrian’s behaviour involved in the accident. For the purpose of gathering information from the respondents, a
questionnaire was used as a research tool which consists a series of questions and other prompts. The collected data were
analysed using descriptive statistics, correlation, factor analysis and Structural Equation Model (SEM). Results show all
variables are significantly contributed to safe crossing behavior. There are two most dominant variables namely perceived
consequence and expectation of pedestrian toward safe crossing behavior. TPB model is therefore capable of explaining
the significant factors influencing the pedestrian’s intention to safe crossing behaviour. The most dominant variable of the
extended model of TPB is expectation. Pedestrian’s expectation is high toward proper crossing facility, authorities should
intervene with the design infrastructure to attract more pedestrians to use the crossing and there is a need to provide
sufficient signal time for pedestrians to cross the street safely. |
