On the under side of the push button control at pelican crossings is a knob that twists when the light turns green - for use by visually impaired people.

My 10 year old daughter told me a while ago and I driver her nuts by running up and chuckling when it knob turns

Cheers.

I didn't know about that either - I'd always assumed that was what the beeping was for and never really gave much thought to anything else!
Guess who else is going to have a play next time she's at a crossing
