Both pedestrians and motorists have rights and responsibilities on the roadway.
Pedestrians must obey traffic signals and yield to motorists if not crossing at an intersection or a mid-block marked crosswalk.
Motorists are required to yield to pedestrians in mid-block marked crosswalks and in intersection crosswalks.
Crosswalks may be marked or unmarked. They exist at all controlled intersections and may only be established by crosswalk markings at non-intersection / mid-block locations.
Not all legal crosswalk locations are safe for pedestrians to cross due to traffic volumes, speed limits, sight distances, etc.
An engineering study must be conducted before installing a marked crosswalk.
