When a Crosswalk Becomes a Life-Saving Infographic

Quick answer: Tuzla transformed a crosswalk into a living accident chart, merging data and design to prompt safer behavior at the exact decision point.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Tuzla, Istanbul, a pedestrian crossing was redesigned as a living accident chart, with each stripe representing real crash data from the past decade.

It’s unexpected and useful: the message is embedded in the ground where behavior changes—turning data into a tangible, life-saving reminder.

Instead of adding another sign, the public space itself becomes the medium—an OOH principle applied to urban design for maximum relevance and recall.

Yes. The visual system is modular: crossings can be adapted with local data, paired with DOOH counters, heatmaps, and social content for wider reach.

That merging data visualization with place-based design can drive real behavior change—turning everyday infrastructure into persuasive communication.

Bottom line: By turning the crosswalk stripes into a data-driven infographic, this Istanbul intervention reframes road safety from abstract advice into a tangible, high-impact message. The OOH-minded approach embeds communication in the urban fabric to save lives.
