Traffic congestion has become a major problem for safe pedestrian crossing in Pedestrian intend to cross the road either for work or lei- most of the metropolitan cities. This has emphasized for sure during short distance. Pedestrian crossing time is providing a sufficient pedestrian gap for safe crossing on considered as an important parameter for designing the urban road. The present works aims in understanding fac- signal time during crossing phase. As per Indian road tors that influence pedestrian crossing behaviour. Four congress (IRC: 103) [1] pedestrian crossing speed is con- locations were chosen for identification of pedestrian sidered as 1.2 m/s. Pedestrian crossing speed is varied crossing behaviour, gap characteristics, waiting time etc., while crossing the road at
