Krois-Modell 2100, Pedestal red / green, SG200, 1 piece

Signal light with LED

If the pedestrian signal jumps from green to red, all pedestrians who have already entered the road should quickly cross the ford or proceed to the next safe ground.The clearing time of the pedestrians begins at the beginning of the day, which ensures that pedestrians can cross the entire protected area at a speed between 1.0 and 1.5 m / s (usually 1.2 m / s) to the next safe area , Only then will the traffic crossing the pedestrian crossing be released. For pedestrians, a red-marked pedestrian walkway does not mean that there are no pedestrians there.

If a common signal is used for pedestrians and cyclists, this results in unnecessarily long waiting times for cyclists, especially at large intersections, which could still safely cross the intersection at the beginning of the red phase for pedestrians due to their higher speed. For this reason, an additional radar is often attached, which sometimes switches to red later. In the United States, cyclists can easily navigate the red-flashing pedestrian signals, often linked to a down-counting countdown. If the pedestrian signal already flashes, the cyclist knows that he has to accelerate in order not to have to wait. If the countdown has progressed to 2 (small crossroads) or 5 (large crossroads), the cyclist knows that the time to safely cross the crossroads is no longer sufficient. Immediately with permanent red for the pedestrian (countdown immediately following "1") the yellow signal begins for the car transfer.

The signal color "yellow" is generally not used for pedestrian traffic in Germany. The exception is the city of Düsseldorf, which has "red-yellow-green" signals for pedestrians. [9] Some people are irritated about this yellow phase, which is why the city of Düsseldorf distributed an eight-page brochure. The topic was: How do you cross the street in Düsseldorf?
