The victim sustained injuries to his face and knees but did not require hospital treatment.

They solved the problems at Sainsbury underpass by switching on the pedestrian crossing above ground.  Why not do similar with the Robin Hood underpass?

Would not need more, the traffic has to stop anyway.  Just change them so they allow pedestrians to cross.
