Pedestrian crossings are safe places for pedestrians to cross the road. There are various different types of pedestrian crossings, these are: Zebra, Pelican, Puffin, Toucan, Pegasus and also near schools where a lollipop person might get you to stop.

Pelican crossings- On approach you will notice zig-zag lines and traffic lights. Once the pedestrian presses the button the traffic lights will then change amber to red. After a period of time the traffic lights will then turn to flashing amber (meaning that you can go as long as the pedestrians are off the crossing) and then green to go. If pedestrians are near the crossing, always anticipate that the traffic lights might be changing soon.

Puffin crossings (Pedestrian User-Friendly Intelligent crossings)- Similar to Pelican crossings, but have sensors on top of the traffic lights that detect if pedestrians are crossing slowly and hold the red traffic light longer. These do not have a flashing amber light and phase like normal traffic lights.

Toucan crossings (Two Can cross)- Similar to Pelican crossings too, but they allow cyclists and pedestrians to cross. No flashing amber light and phase like normal traffic lights.

Pegasus crossings- Similar again to Toucan crossings but allow horse riders to cross too.
