| 摘要： | The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the Broward County Traffic Engineering Division and the City of Boca Raton replaced traditional pedestrian signals at eight intersections located in the South Florida area with countdown pedestrian signals. The countdown pedestrian signal is comprised of the same three indications as the conventional pedestrian signal. The flashing Dont Walk indication, however, is complemented by an illuminated number indicating the number of seconds before the steady Dont Walk indication will be illuminated and thus provides feedback to pedestrians on the time remaining in their crossing. By advising the pedestrian of the remaining seconds before the Dont Walk indication will be illuminated, the pedestrian can make a decision on his or her ability to safely cross the street in the available time. |
