Controlled crossing

A form of pedestrian crossing that gives priority to pedestrians or cycles crossing a road. Controlled crossings should be contrasted with a uncontrolled crossings, which do not give priority to pedestrians, and which typically take the form of subtle road markings, sometimes combined with a central refuge.

Types of controlled crossing are

• Zebra
• Pelican
• Puffin
• Toucan
• Pegasus
• Tiger

All these crossings will be subject to some form of consultation and should be built with the appropriate tactile paving.
