PART IV

En vigueurTexte officiel

(1) Where the carriageway is marked with parallel white lines or studs across its width, or with any other marking to indicate a crossing for the use of pedestrians, all vehicles approaching such crossing shall slow down and, if necessary, shall stop, to allow any pedestrian to use such a crossing, and they shall in no case cross the path of any pedestrian making use of such crossing.

(2) No pedestrian shall linger unnecessarily when making use of a pedestrian crossing.

(3) When any pedestrian crossing is controlled by traffic light signals, operated either automatically or manually, pedestrians are not to make use of such crossing unless authorised by such light signals.

(4) The light signals referred to in the last preceding sub-regulation of this regulation shall consist of the lit word WAIT, of the lit word CROSS and of the intermittently lit word CROSS and shall signify as follows:

(a) the lit word WAIT shall convey the prohibition for any pedestrian to make use of the crossing;

(b) the lit word CROSS shall convey an indication that pedestrians may make use of the crossing; and

(c) the intermittently lit word CROSS shall convey an indication that the time allowed for the use of the crossing is going to expire, and that no pedestrian, who is not already crossing the carriageway, may make use of the crossing.
