Audible crosswalk signals?

[Image removed by sender. Google Forms]


Hello,

I'm LeRoy Hansen, a member of the blind and vision impaired community in Arlington County.

Currently,  Arlington is transitioning away from voice messaging at crosswalk signals (for example, walk sign is on to cross Glebe road) to a non-verbal signal -- such as an audible pulse (a tweet-tweet-tweet or cuckoo).

Arlington County is also eliminating the vocal countdown of the time remaining to cross the street. A county employee said the changes were being made with guidance from two blind individuals.

I would like to provide the county with input from a larger group of people that are blind or have impaired vision. To do that, it would be very helpful to have your responses to the following seven survey questions.  A greater number of responses will strengthen our message.

After collecting the responses, I will send summary statistics to everyone on this email and provide that information to the county as well. Please note that no names will be associated with responses.
Survey participants must have impaired vision and live in or spend a considerable portion of their outdoor time in Arlington county.

Allow me to apologize if you have already received an invitation to participate in this survey. In attempting to be inclusive I suspect that some people may receive more than one email. Please submit only one set of responses.

Please submit your responses by Sunday,  Feb  12.
Click the link immediately below to complete the survey online.
