English term or phrase: when crossing ways accessible to vehicles in a 0.5m wide zone
cables shall be installed at least ××m from soil surface, this depth shall be increased to ××m when crossing ways accessible to vehicles in a 0.5m wide zone, from either side of these ways.
按我的理解,crossing是横穿,就是电缆横穿过有车辆通行的道路,这个0.5宽的地带,从道路两边起算,又是怎么回事……糊涂中

Explanation:
其实这儿关键是对“zone”的理解。先说说我的理解:地下线缆通过道路时需要加大掩埋深度这是无疑,但问题是从何时,或说跟路边多远处就要开始加大掩埋深度?肯定不可能是正好在路边把深度加大到规定深度(这样还是不能很好地保证车辆通行安全),而是从距路边一定尺寸/距离时就开始加大掩埋深度,此处的这一尺寸/距离就是 0.5 米!亦即距路边 0.5 米处就要开始让线缆掩埋深度开始加深,这样才能更好地保证车辆通行安全。

以上仅供参考

可对所建议措词进行修正润色。也不排除作者是想说沿距道路 0.5 米的地带范围内与道路平行走线,但这样的话 crossing 一词就用得不妥,此为猜想。
