AS 2353:2018 PDF
Specifies requirements and tests for the design, construction and performance of push-button assemblies and associated equipment to facilitate pedestrian usage of signalized intersections or dedicated pedestrian crossings.
This Standard specifies requirements and tests for the design, construction and performance of pedestrian push-button assemblies and associated equipment, which are designed to facilitate the safe movement of pedestrians at locations controlled by traffic signals. It includes requirements for the generation of audio–tactile signals, for use in conjunction with push-button assemblies, to assist pedestrians who are vision impaired.
This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee LG-006, Road Traffic Signals, to supersede AS 2353—1999. It is one of a number of Standards that set out requirements for the equipment associated with traffic signal installations.
The objective of this Standard is to specify requirements for the design, construction and performance of push-button assemblies and associated equipment to facilitate pedestrian usage of signalized intersections or dedicated pedestrian crossings. It is intended for application by road and traffic authorities and their suppliers to facilitate the manufacture, purchase and use of pedestrian push-button assemblies.
This Standard was revised to bring it up-to-date, to include additional design detail and to include provision for cyclists.
Statements expressed in mandatory terms in footnotes to tables are deemed to be requirements of this Standard.
