Equestrian crossing is designed for which users?

• A. Equestrian crossing
• B. Pelican crossing
• C. Puffin crossing
• D. Toucan crossing

Answer: (A)

Equestrian crossings are built specifically for horse riders to cross roads safely. They provide enough time for a rider to cross at a walk and are designed with features that help horses feel comfortable and shown signals that give a clear indication to drivers to slow down. The idea is to accommodate the needs of mounted or led horses, not just pedestrians or cyclists. Other pedestrian and cyclist crossings—like pelican, puffin, and toucan—are designed for people on foot and/or cyclists, but they aren’t tailored for riding animals, so they don’t serve the same purpose.
