In Bishkek, they talked about a specialized pedestrian crossing (video)

Presentation of the "Taza Koom" Program

On April 12, during the presentation of the "Taza Koom" program at the state residence "Ala Archa," information was provided about a specialized pedestrian crossing.

The presentation noted that traffic accidents often occur on multi-lane roads because drivers in the first lane stop to let pedestrians cross, while vehicles in the second and third lanes continue to move.

“All signaling equipment will be installed on the arch above the roadway: traffic lights, signal indicators, etc. When the control button is pressed, all signal lights in blue and yellow colors will turn on. The yellow and blue LED indicators will flash alternately in response to the pedestrian pressing the button first. The traffic light for motorists responds when the pedestrian presses the button, which also activates a horizontal, unidirectional, three-color traffic light for motorists located in all directions of traffic, etc.,” the presentation stated.
