Abstract

We propose a novel linear model of pedestrian safety in urban areas that considers a single independent variable of pedestrian path safety. This variable is estimated by sampling pedestrian paths from an accurate model of such paths and in turn estimating the mean safety of these paths. In an analysis of 15 UK cities, the proposed model is demonstrated to accurately predict the number of pedestrian casualties per million population.
