What kind of clear zone guidlines are there for roadside seating at a cafe? We have a 25mph posted speed limit with vertical curb face with a 12' sidewalk on the back of curb. Can we have seating on the 12' sidewalk? AASHTO says to keep a minimum of 18" from the face of the curb for clear zone but I am feeling uneasy about this. Any suggestions? Thank you for the help in advance.
