e.
On level streets, address special needs of visually impaired people, children, people with restricted mobility, and people with learning difficulties to ensure that they are not put at increased risk. Always provide a minimum contiguous 5-foot wide ADA accessible path that has appropriate cues such as bollards, truncated domes, etc., at intersections.
