What is a continental crosswalk?
A continental crosswalk uses wide bars running parallel to traffic, like a ladder. It's far more visible to drivers than two thin parallel lines, which is why it's recommended at busy crossings.
Do private parking lots have to follow the MUTCD?
The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices applies to roads open to public travel, and many towns expect private lots to follow it too. Using MUTCD layouts keeps markings familiar to drivers and defensible if there's ever an incident.
How wide should a stop bar be?
Stop bars are typically 12 to 24 inches wide and placed ahead of the crosswalk or stop sign. We size them to match the drive aisle and sightlines.
