This is an SAE Motor Vehicle Council draft document of the DSRC committee, subject to change.
3.62 pedestrian change interval: An interval during which the flashing UPRAISED HAND (symbolizing
DONT WALK) signal indication is displayed, often also called the pedestrian clearance time. During this
interval the SPAT messages indicates a don’t walk state for that pedestrian lane (along with an optional
period of time remaining for this state).
3.63 pedestrian clearance time: The minimum time provided for a pedestrian crossing in a crosswalk,
after leaving the curb or shoulder, to travel to the far side of the traveled way or to a median. During this
interval the SPAT messages indicates a Flashing Don’t Walk indication for that pedestrian lane (along with
an optional period of time remaining for this state). The duration for such time intervals comes from
MUTCD and is based on a rate of speed of 2 meters per second.
3.64 pedestrian phase: The time during which a walking figure or word “WALK” is presented and the
DON’T WALK is presented. The pedestrian phase is also the time interval of the pedestrian walk interval
and the pedestrian change interval combined.
3.65 pedestrian walk interval: An interval during which the WALKING PERSON (symbolizing WALK)
signal indication is displayed. When a verbal message is provided at an accessible pedestrian signal, the
verbal message is “walk sign.” During this interval the SPAT messages indicates a walk state for that
pedestrian lane (along with an optional period of time remaining for this state and the subsequent
pedestrian clearance state).
3.66 permissive mode: A mode (left or right) of traffic control signal operation in which, when a
CIRCULAR GREEN signal indication is displayed, left and/or right turns are permitted to be made after
yielding to pedestrians and/or oncoming traffic.
3.67 preemption control: The transfer of normal operation of a traffic control signal to a special control
mode of operation.
3.68 pretimed operation: A type of traffic control signal operation in which none of the signal phases
function on the basis of actuation. When such a signal operation is reflected in the SPAT message, the time
intervals given for various signal phases are fixed and do not vary based on any form of actuation.
Pretimed operation may be fixed or based on time of day schedules.
3.69 protected mode: A mode (left or right) of traffic control signal operation in which left or right turns
are permitted to be made when a left or right GREEN ARROW signal indication is displayed.
3.70 provider service table: The collection of data describing the applications that are registered with a
WAVE device.
3.71 red clearance interval: An optional interval that follows a yellow change interval and precedes the
next conflicting green interval.
3.72 reference lane: A reference lane is a lane drivable by motorized vehicle traffic which also contains a
detailed path definition of the lane’s geometry (a center line path and width) as well as basic attributes
(such as the allowed maneuvers) about the lane. The provided path data may optionally be shared with
another nearby lane (a “computed lane”) in the same intersection. It is one of several basic types of lanes
defined in the message set.
