We’ve had repeated requests to do one or more rainbow crosswalks here in Santa Cruz and I LOVE the idea but our Public Works says NO – “Standards are great for several reasons, mostly to do with universal understandability, split-second decisions, and liability.”

Does anyone know if there is data showing that such crosswalks do NOT have any higher rates of accidents?

Any other resources?

Thanks,
