Rumble strips installed at Eakins oval is causing confusion for many pedestrians who now cross at the wrong spot of the intersection.
FOX 29's JoAnn Pileggi is at the Art Museum talking to pedestrians who are confused about where to cross the street at the busy intersection at Eakins oval.Recently, pedestrians walking near the Art Museum have had to make the decision to use the crosswalk or risk it, and run.
In 2020, Philadelphia installed horizontal rumble strips in various spots on Eakins oval with hopes to cut down on drag racing and speeding. Now, pedestrians are confused about which white lines they are supposed to cross through when navigating their way through the busy lanes.Confusing the rumble strips with a crosswalk, many people are crossing the street at the wrong spot. Pedestrians are blaming it on the fact that there is no proper signage.
"It’s not very clear, so if the signs or something indicate where you cross, but it’s the shortest route across, I can see why people think it’s the place to go," said another confused pedestrian, Matt Hansen.
