Description
Summary:	Midblock pedestrian signals (MPSs) provide safety benefits and support "complete streets," a transportation policy and design approach that calls for roadways to be designed and operated with all users in mind, including bicyclists, public transportation users, drivers and pedestrians of all ages and abilities. This report presents a state-of-the-practice guide to midblock pedestrian crossing treatments, summarizes the safety effectiveness of MPS installations and proposes language for consideration in future updates to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) for MPSs.
