Street. Connection to Pearson Street would be maintained through the existing
parking lot. Prior to the City advancing the conversion to two-way flow along Court
Street and Park Street it would be advantageous to work with the owner of the 30
Temple Street property to consider whether a reconfiguration of the Court
Street/Temple Street intersection could be coordinated with any development
proposal.
B 3.1.8 Pedestrian Signal Phasing
Under the existing condition, all study area signalized intersections are timed to
provide exclusive pedestrian phased signal timing. As illustrated in Figure 23, an
exclusive pedestrian phase is when vehicle and bicycle traffic is stopped on all
approaches to allow pedestrians to cross any leg of a signalized intersection.
Figure 23: Exclusive Pedestrian Crossing
Generally, exclusive pedestrian phasing is only being used in the New England
region, whereas most of the United States services pedestrian movements by way ot
concurrent pedestrian signal phasing’,
Figure 24 shows concurrent pedestrian phasing that allows for pedestrians to cross in
the same direction at the same time as parallel motor vehicle and bicycle traffic
receives a green indication. Turning vehicles are instructed by way of on-street
regulatory signage backed by New Hampshire state law to YIELD to any pedestrian
in a crosswalk.
