Crosswalks for DLTs are at the same locations that they would be for a conventional intersection. The major street crossing may be made in one or two stages, where the median can be used to provide a refuge for a two-stage crossing. shows a typical pedestrian crossing with refuge islands.

Various options exist for bicyclists to safely use a DLT. Where on-street bicycle lanes are provided on a corridor, they should continue through the DLT intersection. Marked "bike box" locations should be provided for left-turns. Since less experienced cyclists may not feel comfortable riding through the DLT, it is desirable to provide a ramp from the bike lane to a shared-use path which can be used by both pedestrians and cyclists. This is similar to the recommended practice at roundabouts.

Ultimately, a thorough site assessment, an assessment of anticipated bicycle and pedestrian volumes, and an assessment of projected origins and destinations for pedestrians and bicyclists should be conducted to determine the preferred method of movement through the DLT.
