Answer

What kind of road changes help protect pedestrians in Mallorca?

Measures such as bollards, raised crossings, narrower lanes, and clearer speed limits can help keep vehicles away from sidewalks. These changes are especially useful on streets in Mallorca where children, older residents, and shoppers walk close to traffic. Even modest design changes can lower the chance of a car mounting the pavement.
