Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A zebra/toucan hybrid crossing As you turn onto the A12 Colchester Road from the Gallows Corner Roundabout, this strange hybrid crossing hones into view. It's a toucan crossing in the respect that it is light-controlled, but it is also partly a zebra crossing as it is lit with an Urbis ZX3 Zebra streetlight (a special streetlight whose optics are specifically designed for zebra crossings). This just goes to show how important so called "white" lighting is on crossing points to improve safety these days. The taller streetlight in the background is a Philips MA60 dating back to the 1970s, and behind that is a modern Thorn Riviera casual replacement, which would've replaced a failed MA60. View taken looking north-northeast in the centre of the square from the A12 Colchester Road.
