At many signalized intersections, pedestrian detection is accomplished by the pedestrians pushing buttons to activate the Walk phase. Often, pedestrians do not whether the button already has been pressed or if it is even working. To address this problem, illuminated push buttons are used to indicate when the Walk phase has been activated. This study evaluated the effects of illuminated push buttons on pedestrian behavior. This study was part of a larger Federal Highway Administration research study investigating the effectiveness of innovative engineering treatments on pedestrian safety. It is hoped that readers also will review the reports documenting the results of the related pedestrian safety studies.
