This study documented that blind pedestrians have considerable difficulty locating crosswalks, aligning to cross, determining the onset of the walk interval, maintaining a straight crossing path, and completing crossings before the onset of perpendicular traffic at complex signalized intersections. Revised techniques and strategies are suggested for alleviating these difficulties.
这项研究表明,在复杂的信号控制交叉路口,盲人行人在寻找人行横道、对准以便过马路、确定步行时段的开始、保持直线穿越路线以及在垂直方向车辆开始行驶前完成过马路等方面存在相当大的困难。建议采用经过修订的技术和策略来缓解这些困难。
