CROSSING MARKINGS ALONG
NATIONAL ROADS
x-x-x-x-x-x-~-x-x-x- )
In order to set a standard for the proper installation of pedestrian crossing markings along
national roads, the following guidelines are hereby prescribed for the guidance of all
concerned:
1. Pedestrian crossing markings shall consist of Zebra for non-signalized crossing and
Crosswalk for signalized crossing with the following detailed descriptions.
1.1 Zebra - Consists of a series of longitudinal bars 300 millimeters (for speed less
than 60.0 kph) or 600 millimeters (for speed more than 60.0 kph) wide and
generally not less than 4.0 meters long. The bars are placed parallel to the road
center line with gaps of equal width between bars. (Figure 1)
1.2 Crosswalk - Defined by a pair of solid white lines across the road surface not less
than 4.0 meters and not more than 8.0 meters apart, 150 millimeters (for speed
less than 60.0 kph) or 300 millimeters (for speed more than 60.0 kph) in width.
(Figure 2)
2. A pedestrian zebra crossing shall be installed under any of the following conditions
during peak hours of an average day:
2.1 The number of pedestrians crossing within 30.0 meters of the proposed site
exceeds one hundred fifty (150) persons per hour.
2.2 The number of vehicles in one direction of the carriageway where there are
concentration of pedestrians, exceeds eight hundred (800) vehicles per hour.
However, such crossing shall not be installed within 500 meters of any other
pedestrian facility in order to provide a longer distance of continuous and
uninterrupted flow of vehicular traffic.
3. Pedestrian crossing markings at road intersections without channelized islands (median
and corner islands) shall be placed outside the intersection area at least 2.0 meters
setback from the edge of the carriageway of the intersecting road. (Figures 3 and 4)
4. In channelized road intersections with corner island, pedestrian crossing markings
shall be placed/connected with the corner island (Figures 5 and 6) to aid pedestrians in
crossing large pavement area and in determining correct vehicle paths.
Dept Order No. 62 S. 2011 Page 212
4. In channelized road intersections with comer island, pedestrian crossing markings
shall be placed/connected with the comer island (Figures 5 and 6) to aid pedestrians in
crossing large pavement area and in determining correct vehicle paths.
5. Mid-block pedestrian crossing marking shall be provided at locations where
pedestrians are normally concentrated, but should not be placed on or adjacent to
horizontal and vertical curves that limit the sight distance in either direction.
6. Median island which serves as pedestrian refuge shall be installed on carriageway with
more than one lane in each direction, provided that it satisfies any of the following:
(Figures 5 and 6)
6.1 During peak hours of an average day. the number of vehicles exceeds one
thousand (1,000) per hour.
6.2 There is a history of accidents involving pedestrian waiting in the center of the
road before completing the crossing.
7. In conjunction with pedestrian crossing marking, a stop line should be placed across
the appropriate portion of the roadway at positions where vehicles are required to stop.
A stop line is a solid white line 450 millimeters wide on urban roads and 600
millimeters wide on rural roads. The stop line should be placed at 1.50 meters from
the nearest pedestrian lane except for mid-block pedestrian actuated signals where the
stop line should be placed 3.0 meters before the nearest pedestrian crossing line.
(Figure 7)
This Order shall take effect immediately.
