• Vehicle-Pedestrian Interaction: Prioritization of pedestrian rights at all crossings, especially in high-traffic areas.
• Lighting: Well-lit pathways to ensure visibility at night for safety.
• Surveillance: Surveillance cameras and emergency call boxes along paths for security.

Accessibility

• Barrier-Free Access: Paths should be designed to be accessible to all, including individuals with disabilities (wheelchair ramps, tactile paving, etc.).
• Clear Pathways: Ensure paths are free from obstacles (bicycles, vehicles) and wide enough to accommodate all users.
• Rest Areas: Seating areas along longer paths for students or staff who may need rest.

Environmental Considerations

• Green Spaces: Incorporate greenery, trees, or water conservation-friendly landscaping along paths to enhance aesthetics and provide shade.
• Sustainable Materials: Use eco-friendly materials for pathways that are durable and have low environmental impact.

Traffic Management

• Bicycle and Pedestrian Separation: Dedicated bike lanes to prevent accidents between cyclists and pedestrians.
• Speed Limits: Speed control measures (e.g., speed bumps, signage) to reduce vehicle speed in pedestrian-heavy areas.

Enforcement

• Violations and Penalties: Guidelines for misuse of pedestrian paths, such as illegal parking or driving on paths, with fines or other penalties.
• Monitoring: Regular monitoring by campus security to ensure adherence to the policy.

Education and Awareness

• Orientation Programs: Inform new students, staff, and visitors about pedestrian safety policies.
• Signage: Install informational signs that promote awareness of pedestrian zones and rules.
