Reduce Collisions with Pedestrian Scrambles
With
Halloween
activities scheduled for later this week, many kids will
 be out crossing dangerous intersections. One way you can help to reduce pedestrian collisions is with a pedestrian scramble. A pedestrian scramble, or diagonal crossing,
is an intersection that stops
all traffic and allows pedestrians to cross any direction at any time, even diagonally.
- Pedestrian volume meets or exceeds 30% of vehicle volume during peak hour
- Turning traffic through any crosswalk exceeds 200 VPH
- History of collisions involving turning-vehicles and pedestrians exceeds City average
The perfect way to pair your improved intersection is with the Polara iNavigator Accessible Pedestrian Signals. For more information please
