through" pedestrian paths, which provide better guidance and information for pedestrians with vision impairment than do painted islands. • Channelized right-turn lanes with yield control were shown to reduce right-turn delay to vehicles by 25 to 75 percent in comparison to intersection approaches with conventional right-turn lanes.

• Since consistency in locating crosswalks is important and since current practice shows a clear preference for crosswalk locations near the center of a channelized right-turn lane, design guidance should recommend placing crosswalks near the center of the channelized right-turn lane for channelized right-turn lanes with yield control or no control at the entry to the cross street. • Where the channelized right-turn lane has STOP sign control or traffic signal control, the crosswalk should be placed immediately downstream of the stop bar.
