If the continuous width is less than 5 feet, are the passing spaces at least every 100 <br /> feet along the sidewalk that are 5 feet wide or greater? <br /> 4. Is the cross slope of the sidewalk less than 1%? <br /> S. Where the sidewalk is adjacent to the street, does the grade of the sidewalk not <br /> exceed the general grade of the street? <br /> 6. Is the surface of the sidewalk firm,stable,and slip resistant? <br /> 7. Are any gaps in the surface less than 1h inch? <br /> 8.

Is the width of the marked crosswalk at least 6 feet? <br /> 3. Does the cross slope of the crosswalk meet the following guidelines: <br /> a. If the crosswalk is crossing a street with a stop control,is the cross slope less <br /> than 1%? <br /> b. If the crosswalk is crossing a street without a stop control, is the cross slope <br /> less than 5%? <br /> 4, Is the running slope of the crosswalk less than 5%? <br /> 5. If the crosswalk crosses a median,is the length of the median at least 6 feet and does <br /> it contain detectable warnings located at curb line or edge of the roadway? <br /> 6. If the intersection signalized, does it have a pedestrian signal, if so, does the <br /> pedestrian signal phase allow enough time for a walking speed of 3.5 ft/sec? <br /> City of South Bend [Attachment <br />
