The purpose of this research was to develop warrants for pedestrian over and underpasses or grade separated pedestrian crossings (GSPCs). This research was conducted by first performing a literature review of existing practices and assessment of the state-of-the-practice to identify general types of warrants and existing warrants. A panel of advisors was formed to evaluate the practicality of the existing and candidate warrants. A behavioral study was conducted to ascertain pedestrians' perceptions of risks and inconvenience associated with use of sample GSPCs. Candidate warrants were developed and validated by contingency table and chi-square analyses of site characteristics of sample GSPCs.
