Figure 4F-1. Guidelines for the Installation of Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons on Low-Speed Roadways

This figure shows a graph depicting numerical values for guidelines for the installation of pedestrian hybrid beacons on low-speed roadways at speeds of 35 mph or less. The figure displays four curves for different crosswalk lengths: 34 ft, 50 ft, 72 ft, and 100 ft.

The table below shows the approximate vehicles per hour (VPH) on the major street and corresponding pedestrians per hour (PPH) for the total of all pedestrians crossing the major street.

Table for Figure 4F-1
Crosswalk length = 34 ft		Crosswalk length = 50 ft		Crosswalk length = 72 ft		Crosswalk length = 100 ft
VPH on the major street (Total of both approaches)	PPH for total of all pedestrians crossing the major street	VPH on the major street (Total of both approaches)	PPH for total of all pedestrians crossing the major street	VPH on the major street (Total of both approaches)	PPH for total of all pedestrians crossing the major street	VPH on the major street (Total of both approaches)	PPH for total of all pedestrians crossing the major street
