Are there frequent driveways? Is there a bicycle lane along the roadway? Pathway Is there a pathway? If there is not pathway or sidewalk, is the ROW width adequate to providing one? If there is a pathway, is the pathway continuous within the roadway segment being reviewed? If there is a pathway, is it Paved Unpaved If pathway is not paved, Is it separated from the roadway? If there is no separate pathway, Is there a shoulder? Is the ROW wide enough to accommodate a pathway or wider shoulder? Do bicycles share the pedestrian pathway? Indicate the distance between pathway and first traffic lane. Is there a guard rail or other barrier between the roadway and pathway? Is the surface rough or difficult to walk on? Are there obstructions in the pathway or shoulder (e.g., signs)? If the pathway in not paved, Does vehicular/pedestrian traffic warrant paving? Is the pathway liable to flooding or large puddles during rain or snow melt? If pathway is paved (a sidewalk), How wide is the sidewalk? Is sidewalk width enough for the pedestrian volume? Indicate the separation between the sidewalk and the first traffic lane. Is the sidewalk surface even? Are there obstructions within the width needed for the pedestrian volume (e.g., signs, vending machines)? Bus stops (if pertinent) Are bus stop locations clearly marked? Is there waiting space off the roadway? Is space adequate to probable number of waiting passengers? Is the waiting spaced paved? List any amenities (e.g., shelters, benches). If there is a pathway in the area, does the NYMTC Pedestrian Safety Study 140
pathway provide direct access to waiting area? Crossings at Intersections What is the (average) distance between intersections? What is the (average) distance between signalized intersections? Mid-Block Crossings Is there a mid-block crossing spot? Is the mid-block crossing signalized? Is the mid-block crossing marked? If marked, is there an advanced stop line? Is there a ped-X sign for drivers? Are there any other crossing signs or devices? Visibility Are light lines adequate for speed limit? Are there visual obstructions (e.g., bushes, signs) that block pedestrians’ view of approaching traffic? Are there visual obstructions (e.g., bushes, signs) that block drivers’ view of pedestrians? Is there street lighting? General observations Is there any thing along the roadway that makes conditions less safe for pedestrians? NYMTC Pedestrian Safety Study 141
