Pedestrians one of the vulnerable road users, have become more susceptible to traffic crashes with the rapid growth of motor vehicles in India. Identifying the uncontrolled intersections having more pedestrian accidents which play a key role in developing efficient and effective strategies to assess pedestrian safety. The study discusses pedestrian crossing behaviour at uncontrolled intersections. It includes a collection of primary data and secondary data. Primary data includes road geometric data and traffic volume count. Secondary data includes the pedestrian accident data from 1st January 2018 to 30th October 2022 from the District Crime Record Bureau (DCRB) of Thrissur City. From the pedestrian accident data of Thrissur district, Kunnamkulam intersection was selected as study area. Analysis was done on the influence of pedestrian attributes like age, gender and crossing patterns in pedestrian accidents. Most of the pedestrian crossing patterns are identified as one step and perpendicular crossing. Variations in crossing time, waiting time, and crossing speed were analysed for each age group and gender.
