All pedestrian walkways situated above roadways in the city of New York shall have stop signs or traffic control signals at each end of such overpass in order to control motor vehicle traffic on streets with which they intersect. The department shall evaluate and install at such locations either a stop sign or a traffic control signal, whichever the department deems to be appropriate, based upon the volume of relevant motor vehicle traffic and the sight-lines of persons emerging from any such overpass. §2.
