When I was at Plessey (pre- Siemens !!) I configured some T200s for Tony
Fitzgerald of what was then GLC TCSU where a flashing amber was used to
indicate to left turners that pedestrians could be crossing around the
corner. The single amber aspect was intended to be fitted to the left of
the green aspect. When the green was displayed the flashing amber was also
displayed. I configured two EPROMs per site - one with the flashing amber
and one as standard. As I remember Tony never got permission to trial the
flashing amber.

I'm sure London would tell us that turning traffic onto flashing ambers was
trialled some years back and abandoned ??. But running peds & traffic
parallel(ish) in some way like this is potentially SO efficient that maybe
it can be resurrected in some form (I was going to suggest having a short
'invitation period' during which peds are fully protected, followed by a
period in which they are not - then I remembered it's called a Pelican!)
