Could we design a better pedestrian crossing?


If we look up and down the line from Adelaide to Noarlunga, stations such as Marion, Woodlands, Hove and Oaklands Park, that were 'upgraded' to a single grade-separated crossing, had level maze crossings later added in response to community concerns. 
If an underpass is built at the northern end of Marion station, in all likelihood a level pedestrian crossing will eventually be added at the southern end to improve access to and from the school and reduce the risks to personal safety presented by the underpass!
Could we save a lot of time and money by simply designing a better at level crossing?

What do you think?
