A the absence of a inarked crossivalk, the stop line or yield line should be placed at the desired <br />stopping oryielding point; but shouldnot be placed Pnore than 30feet or less than 4feet fivni the nearest edge of <br />the inteowerting traveled ivqir <br />11 Stop lines of midblock signalized locations should be placed at least 40fieet hy advance of the nearest signal <br />indication (see Section 4R 14), <br />12 If yield or stop lines are, used at a crossivalk that crosses an uncontrolled nitelti-lane approach, the yield <br />lines or stop lines should be placed 20 to 50fievt in adrance of the nearest crosswalk line, and parking should be <br />prohibited in the area behivear theyield or stop line and the crosswalk (see Figure 3B-1 7). <br />Standard: <br />13 If yield (stop) Bites are used at as crosswalk that crosses -.in uncontrolled inulti-lane approacb, Yield Here <br />To (Stolt Here For) Pedestrians (RI-15 series) signs (see Section 2B.11) shall be used. <br />Guidance: <br />14 Yield (stop) lines and field Here To (Stop Here Fo?)
