Which crossing type does not have a flashing green man?

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

Answer: (B)

Puffin crossings are sensor-controlled and use a steady green man with a countdown timer, rather than any flashing signal. The timing is guided by detectors that know when you’ve stepped onto the crossing and when you’ve cleared it, so there’s no need for a flashing “go” indication. Pelican, Toucan, and equestrian crossings historically use a phase where the green man can flash to warn that the crossing window is ending or to grab attention, which Puffin crossings avoid by design. So the crossing type that does not have a flashing green man is Puffin.
