14.2 Pedestrian Considerations for Alternative Intersections
While pedestrian considerations for alternative intersections require close examination, general considerations for alternative intersection design treatments include:
Ensuring sight distance for pedestrians and motorists and minimizing obstructions. This is particularly important as vehicles and pedestrians are often not approaching one another at right angles.
- Providing wayfinding for navigation;
- Safe and comfortable traversal of the intersection;
- Reducing radii values to decrease vehicle speed;
- Compliance with the and requirements; and
- Reducing the number of multiple conflict-point locations for crossings.
