Photo description: Looking across street, with cross street to the right. There is a pedestrian walking across the street in the crosswalk. On the right in the photo, there’s a pole with two pushbuttons on it. One is in line with the crossing in front and the other points toward the right.

Two APS on one pole often seem simpler, but can lead to problems. Very seldom is a pole well-located for both crosswalks at a corner and usability of the APS is typically not good for both crossings. Here’s an example where, in new construction, two APS were installed on one pole. The one shown in this photo is not too bad; it’s within five feet of the crosswalk line, although it’s the crosswalk line closest to the intersection and it’s about 10 feet back from the curb. Because there are two on one pole, the APS need to have speech walk messages and pushbutton information messages. However, see the next slide to see the situation for the other crosswalk at this corner.
