Peter,
'if' you do decide to put in Zig-Zag's then you obviously need to
advertise this facility as a separate 'Puffin' crossing=20
as I understand it 'regs' don't allow zig-zags at anything other than a
Puffin/Pelican/Toucan

Subject: [TCUG] Offset Pedestrian Facilities at a Controlled Junction -
Zig-Zag markings or Not
Happy New Year to one and All
Hopefully, you guys can offer some good advice on this one.
I have a new Junction being installed with walk with traffic peds on
three arms + an off-set ped facility approximately 30m from the main
junction. This offset ped will be controlled by the main junction
controller as a separate stream or with phase delays (still to be
agreed), and the question has been asked whether the road markings for
the offset ped should be zig-zags or the standard stop lines/centre line
with double yellows. The signal equipment will be nearside puffin type
with pedestrian detection.
There is also a mid block dual puffin crossing being installed
approximately 100m from the offset crossing that will have zig-zag
markings.
My initial thoughts are that we should use zig-zag markings for
consistency, but 5/05 Pedestrian Failties at Signal Controlled Junctions
does not advise this.
Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated.=3D20
Kind Regards
