FYI, looks like a pedestrian gate arm is not needed.

Since the install on Coppell road I have discussed the issue of sidewalk gates with several of my
counterparts and other traffic engineers as well as my senior management and have come to the
conclusion that liability issues should not be a concern as long as the sidewalk is in the close proximity
to the vehicle crossing (30' or less) Therefore I will only require pedestrian warning signs in either
direction on each sidewalk. and pavement markers as per the document you sent us in March of this
year. Guido will be doing a drawing on placement and will forward to you early next week.
Thanks for your patience with us on this relatively new issue to the FWWR.
