I've installed a number of ped facilities in such speed limits.
In South Glos we are just about to install a 700 operating MOVA. This
may go some way to reducing costs (less loops, less ducting) although
you will still be faced with HFS costs.

Subject: [TCUG] Puffins/toucans on 50mph roads
I have been asked to pose this question by colleagues who are looking
into the possibility of installing a puffin or a toucan on a road with a
50mph speed limit. We are led to believe that there are no plans to
reduce the 50 limit. Has anybody installed such a crossing on a 50mph
road? We think the cost of anti-skid would be pretty high as would the
cost of ducting for the Speed Assessment loops. The crossing would be on
a very busy single carriageway road at a point used by lots of
schoolkids, as well as by others throughout the day.
