You can help save lives with these Crosswalk Signs from American Sign Company! These signs are bright, colorful, and certain to attract the attention of distracted drivers. Posting them lets pedestrians know where they can safely cross the street while telling motorists to slow down, observe their surroundings, and prepare to stop. In our collection of high-quality road signs, you’ll find numerous examples of signage meant to protect pedestrians and make the streets safer for those trying to get from one side to the other. Our Crosswalk Signs are among our most effective (and most in-demand) products, and they are perfect for roads with low speed limits – school zones, parking lots, shopping areas, office parks, and more.
Give Pedestrians a Place to Cross Safely
Pedestrians are often forced to make risky decisions about when and where to cross the road due to the lack of posted signage. These decisions contribute to confusion and chaos on the roadways, encourage others to make the same risky choices, and endanger the pedestrians themselves. By putting up a single Crosswalk Sign, you can go a long way towards eliminating this behavior. When you provide pedestrians with a defined place to cross the road, you’re improving the predictability of the area, giving drivers the heads-up they need to adjust their speed, and cutting down on the kind of confusion that leads to serious accidents.
Crosswalk Signs: Where to Put Them
Our Crosswalk Signs have been put to effective use in many different environments. They work best on roads with slower traffic; for faster roads and highways, pedestrians should be encouraged to cross at intersections with specific traffic lights and crossing signals. But for areas surrounding schools, churches, synagogues, mosques, hospitals, office parks, and other organizations, these Crosswalk Signs are the perfect way to manage traffic. We also have customers who work in the arena/fairgrounds industries, where it is important to get long lines of people across the road to enjoy the show.
Creating a Safe Crosswalk
A Crosswalk Sign is a tried-and-true method of improving pedestrian safety, but there are other things you can do to bolster their effectiveness and save lives. If pedestrian traffic is common and heavy, you might want to consider posting a crossing guard who can help direct vehicles to stop and safely shuttle people across the road. Give these guards stop/go paddles they can use to communicate effectively with motorists. You may also wish to use other slowdown signs such as “Children at Play” to create a safer driving environment.
