Install / Upgrade Pedestrian Crossing at Uncontrolled Locations ( Signs and Markings Only )
A pedestrian crossing at an intersection or on a segment provides a formalized location for people to cross the street , reducing the risk of people crossing outside crosswalks where drivers are not expecting them . Crosswalk striping , signs , and other enhanced features alert drivers that there may be a pedestrian crossing .
Landscape Buffer
Separating drivers from bicyclists and pedestrians using landscaping provides more space between the modes and can produce a traffic calming effect by encouraging drivers to drive at slower speeds , lowering the risk of crashing .
