Abstract:

The need to provide improved consistency and quality of pedestrian traffic control devices has become more important with the implementation of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), which was passed to eliminate barriers to employment, transportation, public accommodations, public services, and telecommunications. The ADA requires that pedestrians with physical and/or mental disabilities be accommodated not only in completed facilities, but also during times of construction. The Texas Department of Transportation sponsored a project to investigate methods for accommodating pedestrians in work zones that meet the evolving requirements being developed as a result of the ADA. This checklist document was developed to assist in considering pedestrians within the public right-of-way. Advice on pedestrians is contained in several locations – this document groups the advice to reflect the different stages of a project.
