New from FHWA - Crosswalk Marking Selection Guidebook, to help localities make decisions on where the use of high-visibility designs can have a safety impact. Incorporates new(ish) research on yielding rates for hi-viz crosswalks on two-lane uncontrolled crossings.

@bikepedantic this is awesome. Reading through now. I'm not currently seeing guidelines for marking both/all legs on crosswalks, is that in here? My general rule is: mark all the things on locals to collectors, caution applied for arterials especially multilane at uncontrolled locations. Determine appropriate context and supplemental treatments (rrfb/HAWK).

@femmeUTCD We didn't really tackle stuff that we didn't experiment on, just tried to capture what places are doing. other existing guidance takes on stuff like RRFB/HAWK supplements.
