Indeed. In my town most designated crossings have those in combination with drop kerbs. They're used at crossing=traffic_signals. They're used at zebra crossings. They're used at unmarked crossings with a refuge in the centre of the road. They're used at unmarked crossings. Equally, though, all of those crossing types may not have either drop kerbs or tactile paving. They usually do. These days they may even be a legal requirement (I haven't checked). But they don't change the interaction between driver and pedestrian. I don't consider them a type of crossing (lights/markings/controlled/unmarked) but something which may or may not be present at a crossing. They don't change the rules of engagement between pedestrians and vehicles. Useful to map as additional information but not, of themselves, a type of crossing. audio warning - the button also has an audio output that signals when the > traffic lights state to allow pedestrian crossing, and just before the > pedestrian crossing closes. > Also vibrating button in Germany, rotating cone in the UK. The rotating cone is legally required where the audio warning is legally prohibited, optional in other cases. Inapplicable to anything but crossings with traffic lights. Additional information, not a crossing type. Other countries have similar things. Most of this is documented in the Wiki and we have tags for it. -- Paul
