CROSSWALKS
1. All historic crosswalks between the existing Rim Village Road and the promenade have integrity and should be retained to the degree possible. whenever possible historic crosswalks should be incorporated into the new design. Crosswalks not original to the historic design can be manipulated or removed as necessary, in conjunction with the redevelopment plan.
2. Historic crosswalks that have deteriorated but will be retained in the new design should be rehabilitated.
3. New crosswalks should be constructed based on functional need and not as design features in and of themselves. They should appear similar in scale, material and design to historic crosswalks and meet Federal Standards for accessibility.
4. All new walkways should be staked in the field prior to construction to ensure conformity with the natural topography, views, and other site features.
5. Social trails between Rim Village Road and the promenade should be eliminated or incorporated into the new design and surfaced with the appropriate materials.
6. Stone “pilasters” or markers should be used to:
a. delineate the location of crosswalks where they intersect roads or other surfaces; and
b. prevent random circulation over planting areas.
Existing pilasters should be salvaged and reused if possible and new ones should reflect the appearance of the historic ones.
