Can a R1-5 YIELD HERE TO PEDESTRIANS sign be placed at a pedestrian crosswalk under the Pedestrian Crossing W11-2 warning sign?
No, the R1-5 YIELD HERE TO PEDESTRIANS sign is for application in advance of an unsignalized midblock crosswalk with an advance yield line, to decrease the sight obstruction caused by vehicles in adjacent lanes. The R1-5 sign is not for use at the midblock crosswalk itself. The W11-2 Pedestrian Crossing warning sign with downward sloping arrow plaque (W16-7p) used at the crosswalk is a supplement to the advance placement of the Pedestrian Crossing warning sign. An R1-6 In-Street Pedestrian Crossing sign may be installed in the roadway on centerline of the road at such a crosswalk, whether it is at an intersection or midblock, but not out of the street.
