(a) "Walk" signal.

While a "Walk" signal indication is displayed:

(1) pedestrians may proceed across the roadway toward said indication within any marked or unmarked crosswalk; or

(2) where an exclusive all-pedestrian interval is provided, pedestrians may proceed across the roadway in any direction within the intersection.

(b) "Wait" or "Don't Walk" signal — pedestrian not yet on roadway.

(1) While a "Wait" or "Don't Walk" signal indication, whether flashing or steady, controlling their direction of travel is displayed, pedestrians shall not enter the roadway.

(2) In the case of an exclusive all-pedestrian interval, pedestrians shall not enter a roadway while any "Wait" or "Don't Walk" signal indication, whether flashing or steady, is displayed.

(3) This provision is to be effective between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. only.

(c) "Wait" or "Don't Walk" signal — pedestrian already on roadway.

Any pedestrian who has entered an intersection on the "Walk" signal indication shall proceed without delay to a sidewalk or safety zone while the "Wait" or "Don't Walk" signal indication is showing.
