Traffic Engineering Manual Chapter 13 <br />13-16 <br />UNSIGNALIZED MARKED CROSSWALK INSTALLATION FLOWCHART <br /> <br />Notes <br />2. A reasonable walking distance is 660' in some suburban/rural applications, urban marked crossings should never be closer than 150'. <br />3. See the "Additional Treatment Considerations" section for more information. <br />1. Urban, suburban, and rural locations may vary in this classification. Urban may want to use locations that have higher volumes than the surrounding crossings. Rural locations may want to mark locations <br />that have regular pedestrian crossings but may never meet the 20 pedestrians/hour minimum. <br />CROSSWALK ANALYSIS <br />Is the crossing at an approved school <br />crossing or on a safe routes to <br />school plan? <br />Install marked crosswalk <br />Is the pedestrian volume <br />greater or equal to 20 <br />people/hour or 15 <br />people/hour with an <br />elderly/school facility nearby?1 <br />Yes <br />Go to Table 1 <br />Does the engineering study <br />indicate a need and have <br />adequate visibility for <br />motorists and pedestrians? <br />Remove <br />obstruction/conflict or <br />consider access control. <br />Does the crossing serve regular <br />pedestrian traffic/pedestrian <br />generators (i.e., transit stop)? <br />No Action <br />Is the nearest <br />marked/facilitated crossing <br />less than 300' away?2 <br />Go to Table 1 <br />Direct pedestrians to the <br />nearest facilitated <br />crossing. <br />Consider unmarked <br />pedestrian facilitiation.3 <br />Consider unmarked <br />pedestrian facilitiation.3 <br />Is the pedestrian volume <br />greater or equal to 20 <br />people/hour or 15 <br />people/hour with an <br />elderly/school facility <br />nearby?1 <br />Direct pedestrians to the <br />nearest facilitated crossing or <br />consider a signal, beacon, or <br />grade separation. <br />Yes <br />Yes Yes <br />No <br />No <br />No No <br />Feasible <br />Infeasible <br />to either <br />No Yes <br />to both <br />Yes <br />No <br />FIGURENovember 2014 10
