4) Caution: bicycle lane ahead
Final answer:

Answer:

A fluorescent yellow/green sign typically warns of conditions requiring caution, such as pedestrian crossing or school zone. Given the context of campus safety and the need for students to cross intersections safely, the sign likely indicates 'Caution: pedestrian crossing ahead'.

A fluorescent yellow/green sign typically indicates a warning to be cautious of a specific condition on or near the roadway. When we talk about pedestrian safety, the bright shade of green called neon or chartreuse is often used for caution signs due to its high visibility in all light conditions. This color can indicate cautionary situations such as children playing in the area, pedestrian crossings, school zones, and bicycle lanes.

Regarding the options presented, both children playing and pedestrian crossings could be symbolized by this color. However, given the context provided regarding the need for students to cross an intersection safely to and from campus, the most likely answer would be Caution: pedestrian crossing ahead. This selection is supported by concerns expressed about pedestrian safety at intersections and the beneficial effect of installing traffic signals to manage these dangers.
