High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! An intersection crossing button, colloquially referred to as a walk button, is a device typically integrated into modern traffic light configurations, the purpose of which is to allow pedestrians to safely cross a designated portion of a road. They were first introduced in various forms during the 1960s as part of a general push to improve pedestrian safety. Today, they are ubiquitous in cities and urban areas across the industrialized world; although their functionally is sometimes disputed.Due to growing frustrations over the ineffectiveness of the traditional Zebra crossing, the early ‘60s saw the advent of a number of newly designed systems. The first among them was the Panda crossing, which made its debut in 1962. Despite its inclusion of a rudimentary intersection crossing button, the design's unwieldy and overly complex system of lights assured its early retirement.
