  1. These median refuges are requested by seniors and senior groups – like the AARP – as necessary for older people and some disabled who can’t cross all 6 lanes of traffic in one go.

    Clearly, an older person who is sitting down, can get up the few seconds in advance of the lights changing to finish crossing in time.
