CHAPTER 130 An Act to direct the Department of Transportation to convene a working group to determine model policies for crosswalk design; report. [H 1841] Approved March 18, 2021

 

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. § 1. The Commissioner of Highways or his designee shall convene a working group with relevant stakeholders, including the Virginia Association of Counties and the Virginia Municipal League, to determine whether there should be model policies for crosswalk design and installation in the Commonwealth and, if so, establish recommendations for such model policies. Any such policies shall promote statewide uniformity, maximize pedestrian safety, and consider the needs of people with disabilities that impair sight or mobility. The working group shall monitor and provide input to the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration as updates to crosswalk designs in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways are considered. The working group shall submit to the Governor and the General Assembly a report on its findings and recommendations by November 1, 2021.
