* Clear Path (pedestrian walkway): This directive is intended to provide pedestrians with the maximum amount of safety and space to traverse the sidewalk. This requires a minimum distance on narrow sidewalks (10-12 feet Secondary Streets) of 5 ft., or a minimum distance on wide sidewalks (Larger than 12 feet Main Streets) of 8 ft. DOT's preference is that there is no split in Pedestrian Flow.

Note: All distances indicate measurements from nearest edge of any object to closest edge of vault.
