The Accessible Pedestrian Signals workshop was developed under the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Project 3-62 (Guidelines for Accessible Pedestrian Signals). The goal of Project 3-62 was to develop guidance regarding recommended and optional characteristics of accessible pedestrian signals (APS) to optimize safe and independent crossing at signalized intersections by pedestrians who are blind. Participants may be eligible for 6 professional development hours (PDH). For more information, please refer to the KCITE website.
