Abstract


This article summarises the experience collected by the Road Research Laboratory on pedestrian crossings that are not regulated by a traffic light. These crossings are marked, by international convention, by a number of longitudinal stripes, alternatively yellow and black. It is also recommended that additional signalling be provided, enabling the driver to know that he is approaching such a crossing, and appreciate its precise location. The proposed method is to show a reduced version of the zebra crossing on vertical signposts, which can be seen at night, by painting them with a reflecting material. The drawings and photographs in the article show such signs, and how they can be located along the roadside.
