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).<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
