From the MUTCD, note that the 6 criteria are preceded by: Except as provided in Paragraphs 5 and 6, pedestrian pushbuttons should be located to meet all of the following criteria (see Figure 4E-3):

A and B require the pushbuttons to be next to an all-weather surface and where there is a wheelchair accessible route from the pushbutton to the ramp to provide access to the pushbutton for individuals who are wheelchair users.

C specifies that the pushbutton should be between the edge of the crosswalk line furthest from the center of the intersection and the side of the curb ramp, and not greater than 5 feet from the crosswalk line.

D is a measurement in the other direction and states that the pushbutton should be between 1.5 and 6 feet from the street.

E specifies that the face of the pushbutton should be parallel to the crosswalk to be used and F specifies a mounting height of approximately 3.5 feet, but not more than 4 feet above the sidewalk.
