    If I were driving I would take this to mean crosswalk or watch for kids due to having seen similar signs.

    I think it would be great to gain a new meaning however when posted in the middle of the road.

      The sign I posted follows the 1967 Vienna Convention on road signs.
      Afaik the US is not signatory to that treaty, but they probably have different signs with similar meaning

      Perhaps something like this, based on the US bike lane sign?

        Unfortunately, that’s limited to a single language, not international friendly. Having language at all makes it take longer to process too, but that’s not as much of an issue in this case.

          That seems to be the standard in the US though. I’m only following what they already do over there.

          Sadly, I don’t think you can have a wordless sign here that isn’t negative. The option is a “no cars” symbol. I don’t know how you’d do “pedestrians only” symbolicly.
