I find people respond to them better if you can put bleepers on the crossing. I have also found that where I have fitted the high level indicators people tend to look at them whilst waiting, as they are at a level more in the line of sight, where as the normal height indicators tend to get ignored more. I think it's because they find it strange having to look down at the unit. -----Original Message----- From: Bedding Terry [mailto:Terry.Bedding@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 08 September 2006 10:23 To: TCUG (E-mail) Subject: [TCUG] Nearside Pedestrian Signals Very sticky situation, We have just converted a farside segregated pedestrian and cycle crossing= to a good old nearside Toucan crossing.
