Figure 10D-2. Example of Light Rail Transit Flashing-Light Signal Assembly for Pedestrian Crossings

This figure illustrates an example of a light rail transit flashing-light signal assembly for pedestrian crossings.

The figure shows a post-mounted flashing-light signal with two red lights shown mounted in a horizontal line. The post is denoted as a pipe post. A rounded-top audible device is shown mounted on top of the post. A white crossbuck sign with the words "RAILROAD CROSSING" in black is shown mounted on the post below the audible device and above the post-mounted lights. An R15-8 sign is shown mounted on the post below the post-mounted lights. R15-8 is shown as a horizontal rectangular white sign with a horizontal two-direction black arrow above the word "LOOK" in black.

The base of the post assembly is shown as a dimension of 100 mm (4 in) MAX. thick. The distance from the ground level to the bottom of the R15-8 sign is shown as a dimension of not less than 2.1 m (7 ft). The distance from the ground level to the bottom of the post-mounted lights is shown as a dimension of 2.3 m MIN.-2.9 m MAX. (7.5 ft MIN.-9.5 ft MAX.).
