The first example on this slide is labeled "E – Perpendicular Ramps with Crosswalks Close Together." It is shown with the corner denoted as a 30 ft corner radius and sidewalks as a dimension of 12 ft wide. The crosswalks are shown close to the corner. Each sidewalk ramp leading to a crosswalk is shown with a vertical black arrow centered on each ramp and pointing toward the street, denoting a downward slope. The ramps point somewhat toward the center of the intersection, in order for the base to be square to the rounded corner and the ramp slope to be perpendicular to the gutter. The pedestrian pushbutton symbol is shown to the outside of each ramp, on the side away from the center of the intersection, and close to the street. At the top of each ramp away from the street is an area shown marked with diagonal stripes, denoting a landing. The pedestrian pushbutton symbol is shown on the outside of each ramp at the point where the landing ends and the downward slope begins. A narrow strip of the ramp at the street edge is marked with crosshatching, denoting an area of detectable warning.

The second example is labeled "F – Perpendicular Ramps with Sidewalk Set Back from Road with Crosswalks Far Apart." It is shown with the corner denoted as a 30 ft corner radius and sidewalks as a dimension of 5 ft wide. The crosswalks are shown slightly farther away from the corner. A green strip is shown between the sidewalk and street. Each sidewalk ramp leading to a crosswalk is shown with a vertical black arrow centered on each ramp and pointing toward the street, denoting a downward slope on the green strip. At the top of each ramp farthest from the street is an area shown marked with diagonal stripes, denoting a landing. The pedestrian pushbutton symbol is shown on the outside of each ramp at the point where the landing ends and the downward slope begins. A narrow strip of the ramp at the street edge is marked with crosshatching, denoting an area of detectable warning.
