'Green man' crossings are marked by two rows of studs and have traffic lights for vehicles and pedestrian lights for pedestrians.

The crossings are marked with yellow stripes and you must not stop on the crossing.

'Green man' crossings can be found either independently on a length of road or as part of a traffic light junction.

 Give way to any pedestrians on the crossings. The elderly, the disabled and children may need more time to cross. Do not harass pedestrians, for example by revving up your engine or creeping forward.

At 'Green man' crossings, the signals have the same meaning as traffic lights at a junction.

When the red light shows, you must stop or wait behind the 'Stop' line.

When the green light shows, you may go forward if there are no pedestrians on the crossing and there is room for you to do so - do not block the crossing.

If traffic lights are not working, slow down or even stop as necessary to give way to pedestrians, and proceed through the junction with extreme caution.
