Though the new rainbow crosswalk may look great, I believe that it violates the MUTCD rules concerning what colors can be used in road markings. See section 3A.04.
Also, is the paint retroreflective to be visible during the night?
Oh and section 3B.17 of the MUTCD states that when crosswalk lines are used, they shall consist of solid white lines that mark the crosswalk.
I'm not sure why this wasn't checked before we made this into such a public spectacle. The idea is great but the laws are the laws, especially on a state highway, I would think.

I understand from speaking with my counterparts in the Department of Public Works that there was an agreement to allow Champlain College to undertake this project. The agreement did include compliance with the MUTCD rules. The agreement was approved by DPW.
DPW will be posting an update about this project on Thursday.

No where in any of my comments did I pose any hate statements as you erroneously point out. I am only supplying information regarding safety and possible city liability using a manual that supplies all roadway laws. Maybe before you offer a cliche statement, you would look at the bigger picture.

I really wish you knew what you were talking about. No where did I say anything negative regarding the crosswalk other than stating the laws regarding it. I don't care who the crosswalk was painted for, it's a safety issue and a possible liability to the taxpayers of the city. Maybe instead of offering your cliche comments, you would look at the bigger picture.

6 months and nothing. At least send it to long-term excuse for doing nothing about it.

Why would champlain college put the colored crosswalk back? It doesnt last and after 3 months looks terrible.
Yes but will DPW allow it and be held liable?
