 4. (1) The sign illustrated in paragraph 1 of subsection 3 (1) or in paragraph 1 of subsection 3 (2) shall be erected, (a) on both sides of the highway; (b) in two places on the same standard, mounted back to back, so that the signs face in opposite directions and one sign faces approaching traffic; and (c) at a point not more than 4 metres from the edge of the roadway, adjacent to the place where the pedestrian crossover illustrated in section 5 meets the edge of the roadway. (2) The sign illustrated in paragraph 2 of subsection 3 (1) or paragraph 2 of subsection 3 (2) shall be erected in the same manner as and immediately below the sign illustrated in paragraph 1 of the same subsection. (3) The signs illustrated in paragraph 3 of subsection 3 (1) and paragraph 3 of subsection 3 (2) shall be erected, (a) on both sides of the highway; (b) in one place on the standard so that they face approaching traffic; (c) at a point not more than 4 metres from the edge of the roadway and 30 metres before the place where, from the perspective of approaching vehicular traffic, the pedestrian crossover illustrated in section 5 meets the edge of the roadway; and (d) such that the sign illustrated in paragraph 3 of subsection 3 (2) is below or to the right of the sign illustrated in paragraph 3 of subsection 3 (1). (4) Where the roadway has been divided into two clearly marked lanes for traffic, the sign illustrated as Figure 1 of paragraph 4 of subsection 3 (1) shall be erected above the pedestrian crossover facing vehicular traffic as nearly as practicable over the centre of the roadway. (5) Where the roadway has been divided into more than two clearly marked lanes for traffic, two signs illustrated as Figure 1 of paragraph 4 of subsection 3 (1) shall be erected such that one sign is erected as nearly as practicable over each half of the roadway above the pedestrian crossover facing vehicular traffic. (6) Where the characteristics of the highway require a combination of the signs illustrated as Figure 1 and Figure 2 in paragraph 4 of subsection 3 (1), the signs shall be erected above the pedestrian crossover facing vehicular traffic as nearly as practicable over the centre of the roadway or over the centre of each half of the roadway. (7) A sign erected under subsection (4) shall have four circular pedestrian-activated flashing amber beacons such that there are two beacons, mounted back to back, on each end of the sign. (8) Signs erected under subsection (5) or (6) shall have a total of four circular pedestrian-activated flashing amber beacons such that there are two beacons, mounted back to back, near the inside end of each sign and as close as practicable to the centre of the roadway.

Roadway markings for Level 1 pedestrian crossover signs
 5. (1) Where Level 1 pedestrian crossover signs are used, a pedestrian crossover that is at an intersection on the highway shall have markings on the surface of the roadway having the dimensions and being the distance from each other illustrated in the following diagram:  Text alternative: Diagram of an overhead view of a pedestrian crossover at an intersection on a four-lane roadway. Two “X” markings of 2.5 x 6 m size appear on the roadway in the two lanes approaching the crossover and are set 30 m back from the crosswalk lines. The crossover has double crosswalk bars marking the roadway in the southern leg of the intersection that measure 15 cm to 20 cm wide and 15 cm to 20 cm apart. The space between the two sets of double bars is not less than 2.5 m wide. The stroke width of solid “x” markings is 30 to 50 cm and outlined “X”s must have a minimum line width of 10 cm. This text alternative is provided for convenience only and does not form part of the official law. (2) Where Level 1 pedestrian crossover signs are used, a pedestrian crossover that is not at an intersection shall have markings on the surface of the roadway having the dimensions and being the distance from each other illustrated in the following diagram:  Text alternative: Diagram of an overhead view of a mid-block pedestrian crossover on a four-lane roadway. Two “X” markings of 2.5 x 6 m size appear on the roadway in the two lanes approaching the crossover and are set 30 m back from the crosswalk lines. The crossover has double crosswalk bars marking the roadway that measure 15 cm to 20 cm wide and 15 cm to 20 cm apart. The space between the two sets of double bars is not less than 2.5 m wide. The stroke width of solid “x” markings is 30 to 50 cm and outlined “X”s must have a minimum line width of 10 cm.
