these new pesdetrian crossing designs are a much poorer design than the old ones, where you could see the red/green man by looking across the road, which is where you want to be looking anyway.
But whats with the height difference - their can hardly be a foot between them!these new pesdetrian crossing designs are a much poorer design than the old ones, where you could see the red/green man by looking across the road, which is where you want to be looking anyway.

Those things are f
king useless. Can't bloody stand them!
We have them in town on Union St (Aberdeen main st) and they are terrible if there is ANYONE standing at the lights, because you cant see the traffic lights themselves and the crossing lights are invisible due to folk stnading beside the boxes!
Such a bloody stupid design and they can feck off, seriously. nutgobbling crapboxes.

I take it you've never been in a wheelchair then?i assume the 'logic' for having two is that the higher on is easier to see when somebody is standing next to the first one (which is where people naturally stand at these crossings - you have to walk up to it to press the button after all).
The previous poster is correct, the major problem with these is that as soon as someone is waiting at the crossing, having pressed the button, no other users can see the red/green man display because the first user is in the way. With the older design, it doesn't matter how many people are waiting, everyone can see the red/green man.
