In Preston we had difficulty with pedestrians persisting with crossing to
the centre and then stopping, as we had removed a centre island when the
pelican was converted to a puffin. Only re-education can overcome this.
As for very brief pausing, you can increase the extension time of the
on-crossing detector to account for this.

Subject: [TCUG] Pedestrian Detection at Puffin Crossings
Could I ask the group if anyone else has had a problem with pedestrians
being `lost' by the on-crossing detection at Puffins?
Our problem seems to relate to the minimum ped speed threshold. It appears
that very slow pedestrians could
be missed completely and that if someone pauses on the crossing, for
instance to pick up a dropped item, the detection assumes that the crossing
move has been completed.
We have observed these problems during tests of the detector coverage, but
are not aware of
any conflicts in real life. Has anyone else has come across this issue?
