Actually, Zoo Road itself needs a crosswalk, not just the offramp section. Crossing Zoo Road is more risky, with traffic in both directions.

My major concern with the off-ramp crosswalk is that it is also a blind curve. Drivers have only a split second between when they round the corner and when they would need to apply the brakes if a hiker or group of hikers is crossing. Anything to alert drivers that they need to pay extra attention to the crosswalk area the instant they round the corner would help.
