Utah Pedestrian crossing a roadway is a set of laws and procedures that help pedestrians safely cross a street. This includes providing appropriate crosswalks, sidewalks, and pedestrian signals. Pedestrians should always cross at designated crosswalks, obey all traffic laws and use caution when crossing. There are three types of pedestrian crossings in Utah: the marked crosswalk, the unmarked crosswalk, and the flashing beacon crosswalk. A marked crosswalk is a designated area where pedestrians can cross the street which is marked with pavement markings or signs. An unmarked crosswalk is an area where pedestrians can cross the street which is not marked with pavement markings or signs. Finally, a flashing beacon crosswalk is a designated area where pedestrians can cross the street which has flashing beacons to alert drivers of pedestrian presence.
