pedestrian signals, and sidewalks, and are among the busiest pedestrian crossings in the study area. When crossing Suitland Parkway, pedestrians must cross right-turn slip lanes with large turning radii. Additional study-area intersections exhibit large turning radii, which allow motorists to turn at high speeds. Only the Branch Avenue and Naylor Road intersection features a push-button pedestrian countdown timer. Naylor Road’s roundabouts, in contrast, include crosswalks and ADA-complaint curb ramps (Figure 19). While several Naylor Road intersections were upgraded a few years ago with prominent crosswalk striping, median refuges, and pedestrian signage, its pedestrian crossings continue to present safety issues. Station observations revealed that pedestrians frequently run across Naylor Road at designated crosswalks because the roundabouts fail to provide adequate breaks in heavy traffic. In addition, pedestrians continue to cross Branch Avenue midblock in the vicinity of the station entrance (Figure 20). The nearest marked crossing of Branch Avenue, located at the Naylor Road intersection, is approximately 1,000 feet from Branch Avenue station entrance. Despite the lack of crosswalks or pedestrian signals, pedestrians cross Branch Avenue midblock because doing so can reduce travel time and thus increase convenience. Wayfinding Signage Pedestrian wayfinding signage surrounding Naylor Road Station is limited. Wayfinding sign designs range from small signs with a logo and arrow only, to large signs with arrows indicating where station facilities are located (Figure 21). All of these signs are oriented to motorists, not pedestrians, and lack information about points of interest within the local community.
