Abstract

The article reviews efforts by the city of San Buenaventura to provide pedestrian indications at all signalized intersections. The city has developed a sign to improve pedestrian understanding of pedestrian indications at signalized intersections, and they are installed where at least 10 pedestrians an hour use the crosswalks, and at other high pedestrian traffic generating areas such as hospitals and schools. An educational brochure has also been developed. Also, the city is in the process of converting all of the Walk/Don't Walk signal indications to symbol-type pedestrian signal indications. The design is presented of a sign that should be considered for adoption in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
