Beaumont, AB pilots 3D crosswalk markings to improve pedestrian safety
The 3D crosswalk pilot took place at intersections on Eaglemont Street and 30 Avenue. Crosswalks were updated with markings that appeared to float above the street. This technique slows drivers as they approach intersections, protecting pedestrians from high-speed traffic. Beaumont evaluated if the 40% cost increase compared to a typical intersection was offset by noticeable safety improvements.
