TRAFFIC SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS IN ANN ARBOR

There are two traffic related issues that the Ann Arbor Police Department would like to bring to your attention.
Always look in both directions of the railroad tracks prior to crossing them. Gate crossing malfunctions, although rare with an approaching train, can occur ANYTIME due to a number of system failures. Blind faith in mechanized systems is ill advised when your senses can be utilized to verify a situation. They ask that you always look at an intersection before entering just in case an emergency vehicle is approaching, or a reckless operator is about to enter the intersection.) If traffic lights sustain power failure, be sure to utilize extreme caution on approach to any intersection, regardless of its location. Please plan on stopping and proceeding cautiously, even after having checked carefully. http://www.ci.ann-arbor.mi.us/SafetyServices/EmergencyManagement/EMD/trafficsafe.html

PEDESTRIAN INFORMATION IN ANN ARBOR AREA

Pedestrian Safety
Walking to work is an excellent form of exercise and takes very little gear or expense. Below are some safety tips that can help make your walk safer and more relaxing.

• Be Visible. If your walk to work is in the early morning or evening dark, it is important to wear bright, light-colored clothing so you are visible to on-coming traffic and cyclists.
• Pay Attention. Stay alert at intersections. Unfortunately, in Ann Arbor motorists are not always mindful of pedestrians. Make eye contact with motorists as you are entering the intersection to be sure they see you. Watch for cars entering and exiting driveways and alleyways.
• Share Your Walk. If you are using a multi-use path for your commute to work, be mindful of other walkers, bikers and in-line skaters. It is courteous and expected to walk single-file and stay to the right to allow bikers and skaters to pass you.

Pedestrian Rights

• You have the right to well maintained sidewalks. Home owners in Ann Arbor are required to maintain their sidewalks and shovel them during the winter time. Contact the Community Standards Unit at the Ann Arbor Police Department if you are aware of sidewalk problem.
  (734) 994-1788, or e-mail CommunityStandards@ci.ann-arbor.mi.us
• Right-of-way at all pedestrian crossings -- Contact the Ann Arbor Police Department and the getDowntown program if you are encountering intersections or crosswalks where motorists aren’t stopping, so targeted enforcement of traffic laws can occur at these locations.”
