Description

These cases arose out of an automobile-pedestrian collision which occurred near the intersection of North Charter Street and
University Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin. At the time of the accident, University Avenue was a paved street 56-feet wide, which
ran in a generally east-west direction. The avenue was a one-way street for westbound traffic, except for a single 12-foot
wide lane, on the south side, which was reserved for buses and taxicabs traveling in an easterly direction. This lane was
separated from the rest of the avenue by a four-foot wide concrete median strip, which ran the length of the street except
for intervals at intersections, crosswalks, and driveways. The median strip was six-inches high at the center, but tapered
to four-inches high on the north and south edges to allow a bus approaching from the west to cross over the median strip where
necessary to pass another bus stalled in the south lane. Charter Street intersected University Avenue in two different places. The "east leg" of Charter Street intersected University
Avenue from the south and terminated at that point, forming a "T" intersection. A short distance to the west of that intersection,
the "west leg" of Charter Street intersected University Avenue from the north, forming another "T" intersection. There were
four crosswalks provided in the area for pedestrians to cross University Avenue. One was located on the east and west side
of each intersection. Access of vehicular traffic to University Avenue from north and south on Charter Street was controlled
by stop signs located at each intersection. The forward progress of vehicles traveling in an easterly or in a westerly direction
on University Avenue was not controlled by any traffic signs or signals at the Charter Street intersections. There were signs
on the north and south edges of University Avenue indicating that vehicular traffic was to move one way from east to west
on the roadway. There were no signs indicating that the traffic in the south or bus lane moved in the opposite direction.
