• Abstract:
  The objective of this research study is to synthesize existing research and review the state of the practice regarding the use of FYG for pedestrian and bicyclist signs. The research methodology includes a literature review, survey of departments of transportation (DOTs) and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and follow up interviews with a subset of DOTs and MPOs. The review of existing literature encompassed research studies and DOT guidance, policies, and standards (e.g., state MUTCDs or MUTCD supplements, traffic manuals, and design manuals). Separate surveys were developed for state DOTs and MPOs.
