What does this transverse road marking indicate?
Signage: Road markings
This transverse road marking is a pedestrian crossing with unpainted areas to provide more grip and reduce the risk of slipping, especially when it rains.
Explanation
Non-slip pedestrian crossing
When it **rains**, the road **markings** on the carriageway can become **slippery**.
That’s why some **pedestrian crossings** have **less paint and more asphalt**.
This achieves:
- **More grip** for pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles.
- **Less risk of falling** when passing over the painted stripes.
The transverse road marking with unpainted areas is designed to **improve safety** in rainy conditions.
