Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines and Roundabouts: Update Scott J Windley US Access Board

Roundabouts With pedestrian facilities only!

Roundabouts Great formula for moving cars

Or is it?

Sidewalks shall be separated for way finding. Where pedestrian crossings are more than one lane, pedestrian-activated signals shall be provided.

Landscaped separation to indicate crossing location.

Possible separation solution for curb attached sidewalks

Identifying gaps with no visual cues Multi-threat crash is large issue for large RBTs Once the crossing location is found

Crossings Detectable warnings at crossings and splitters

Crossings Detectable warnings at crossings and splitters

Crossings Raised Crosswalks may help

Single-Lane Single-lane are a little simpler to navigate

Multi-Lane Multi-lane need signalization

This is not ‘reality’ it is Visualization

What kind of signal????

RRF Beacon? Still Need Accessible Pedestrian Signal (APS) This is not an APS

Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (HAWK)?

Sequence Return to 1 Flashing yellow Blank for drivers Steady yellow Steady red Wig-Wag HAWK

Accessible Pedestrian Signal (APS) Locator tone then walk indication

PROWAG will likely require the following: …there shall be a continuous and detectable edge treatment (not DWS) along the street side of the walkway wherever pedestrian crossing is not intended… …at roundabouts with multi-lane crossings, a pedestrian activated ‘signal’ (with APS) shall be provided for each multi-lane segment… …where pedestrian crosswalks are provided at multi-lane right or left channelized turn lanes at roundabouts, a pedestrian activated ‘signal’ (with APS) shall be provided…
