Step 3 Review Impact on Scheme<br />

This <strong>Pedestrian</strong> <strong>Com<strong>for</strong>t</strong> Level <strong>Guidance</strong> is designed to be a useful tool in both internal design<br />

processes and in dialogue with a reviewing authority. This is likely to be the planning or highway<br />

authority responsible <strong>for</strong> the site.<br />

The <strong>Pedestrian</strong> <strong>Com<strong>for</strong>t</strong> Assessment is designed to in<strong>for</strong>m a dialogue about a scheme by<br />

understanding how the scheme operates in practice, how this is perceived by users and what the<br />

impact of this is. For example, extreme crowding on a retail site is likely to put people off visiting<br />

the area in future. This will allow a more in<strong>for</strong>med balance between the needs of different road<br />

users and a design that will work <strong>for</strong> all users.<br />
