Any portion of a roadway at an inter-section or
elsewhere that is distinctly indicated for pedestrian crossing by lines or other
markings on the surface of the roadway that conform in design to the standards
established for crosswalks under ORS 810.200. Whenever marked cross- walks have
been indicated, such cross- walks and no other shall be deemed lawful across
such roadway at that intersection. Where no marked crosswalk exists, a crosswalk
is that portion of the roadway described in the following:
A. Where sidewalks,
shoulders or a combination thereof exists, a crosswalk is the portion of a
roadway at an intersection, not more than 20 feet in width as measured from the
prolongation of the lateral line of the roadway toward the prolongation of the
adjacent property line, that is included within:
1. The connections of the
lateral lines of the sidewalks, shoulders, or a combination thereof on
opposite sides of the street or highway measured from the curbs or, in the
absence of curbs, from the edges of the traveled roadway; or
2. The prolongation of the
lateral lines of a sidewalk, shoulder, or both, to the sidewalk or shoulder on
the opposite side of the street, if the prolongation would meet such sidewalk
or shoulder.
B. If there is neither sidewalk nor shoulder, a
crosswalk is the portion of the roadway at an intersection, measuring not less
than 6 feet in width, that would be included within the prolongation of the
lateral lines of the sidewalk, shoulder or both on the opposite side of the
street or highway if there were a sidewalk.
