Abstract:

Raised crosswalks reduce vehicle speeds, promote driver yielding, and enhance the conspicuity of uncontrolled pedestrian crossings. They can also reduce pedestrian crashes up to 45 percent. However, agencies may have concerns about addressing winter maintenance, drainage effects, and emergency and transit vehicle routing when implementing raised crosswalks. While these factors are important to consider, raised crosswalks can still be effective in a variety of sites and climates.
