How does road design impact your safety when you cross the street? Civil engineer Rob Barnes—better known online as Road Guy Rob—specializes in breaking down complex traffic engineering concepts for everyday road users.
In this featured episode, Rob investigates the alarming, steady rise of pedestrian fatalities across North America since 2010. While his data stems from the United States, the infrastructure pitfalls he highlights—such as wide arterial roads, high speed limits, and inadequate pedestrian crossings—are identical to the highway design challenges we face right here in British Columbia.
Watch the full breakdown below to see how better civil engineering can save lives on our local streets:
