Section 4B.01 — General

Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Section 4B.01. Standards, guidance, options and support statements, with figures and cross-references.

Section 4B.01 General Support: 01 Words such as pedestrians and bicyclists are used redundantly in selected Sections of Part 4 to encourage sensitivity to these elements of “traffic.” 02 Standards for traffic control signals are important because traffic control signals need to attract the attention of a variety of road users, including those who are older, those with vision disabilities, as well as those who are fatigued or distracted, or who are not expecting to encounter a signal at a particular location.
