The Leading Pedestrian Interval gives the walk signal 3-7 seconds before the light in any direction turns green. This allows pedestrians or cyclists to enter the intersection before cars.
IRVINGTON — For months, Irvington residents have been pushing for crosswalk changes at the intersection of Washington and Audubon intersection after complaints of drivers flying through the intersection.When pedestrians or cyclists push a button, it gives the walk signal 3-7 seconds before the light in any direction turns green. This gives them time to begin crossing before drivers accelerate or turn into the intersection.
Improving our infrastructure for pedestrians and bicyclists has been a priority of the City-County Council for years and continues to be an area of focus. The recently improved Complete Streets Ordinance demonstrates our continued to dedication to better infrastructure. The Leading Pedestrian Interval signals allow pedestrians access to their crosswalks before vehicular traffic has a green light. This allows a pedestrian to claim right-of-way and enter a driver’s vision earlier. While new to Indianapolis, it is used nationally and is shown to enhance pedestrian safety. The two signals serve neighbors traveling to our local schools, churches, library, parks, greenways, businesses, and homes.
