[Available Superseded]Road lighting, Part 3.1: Pedestrian area (Category P) lighting - Performance and installation design requirements
Specifies requirements for electric lighting systems for local roads and other outdoor public areas, primarily to provide a safe and comfortable visual environment for pedestrian movement at night. Applies to areas that are devoted solely to pedestrian use and to other areas where there is a mix of pedestrians and vehicles or cyclists. A multi-level specification of lighting performance is given for selection having regard to attributes such as the degree of activity (of pedestrians and vehicles), the perceived risk of crime and the need to enhance the prestige of the locality.
