Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.


625 ILCS 5/11-307

    (625 ILCS 5/11-307) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 11-307)
    Sec. 11-307. Pedestrian-control signals. Whenever special pedestrian-control signals exhibiting the words "Walk" or "Don't Walk" or the illuminated symbols of a walking person or an upraised palm are in place such signals shall indicate as follows:
        (a) Walk or walking person symbol. Pedestrians facing
    
such signal may proceed across the roadway in the direction of the signal, and shall be given the right of way by the drivers of all vehicles. Bicyclists may proceed across the roadway in the direction of the signal, shall be given the right of way by the drivers of all vehicles, and shall yield the right of way to all pedestrians.
        (b) Don't Walk or upraised palm symbol. No pedestrian
    
or bicyclist shall start to cross the roadway in the direction of such signal, but any pedestrian or bicyclist who has partly completed his crossing on the Walk signal or walking person symbol shall proceed to a sidewalk or safety island while the "Don't Walk" signal or upraised palm symbol is illuminated, steady, or flashing.
