What are the dimensions of pedestrian crossing markings?
1 Answers
The width, length, and spacing of pedestrian crossing markings follow an international standard, with a basic length ranging from 3 to 5 meters. Each zebra crossing stripe should be 45 or 60 centimeters wide. The width of zebra crossings can also be increased in 1-meter increments based on pedestrian volume, meaning crossings in areas with higher foot traffic are wider. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Relevant regulations: According to the 'Specifications for Setting Highway Traffic Signs and Markings JTG-D82-2009' implemented on October 1, 2009 (issued by the Ministry of Transport on July 28, 2009), provisions are made for pedestrian crossing lines (zebra crossings). 2. Pedestrian crossing locations: Roads in front of schools, kindergartens, hospitals, and nursing homes without pedestrian crossing facilities should have pedestrian crossing lines marked and warning signs installed. As per planning, tactile paving should be installed on sidewalks of major urban roads.
