Nazir Lalani and the ITE Pedestrian and Bicycle Task force prepared this informational report, which documents studies on crosswalks and warrants used by various entities. The report summarizes studies on pedestrian crossings and assembles in a single document the various treatments currently in use by local agencies in the U.S., Canada, Europe, New Zealand and Australia to improve crossing safety for pedestrians at locations where marked crosswalks are provided. The report also summarizes the results of various studies conducted by public agencies on pedestrian-related collisions, including those documenting the results of removing crosswalk markings at uncontrolled locations. The appendix includes policies of specific agencies on where crosswalks are provided as well as typical crosswalk signing and striping plans.
