Pedestrian crossovers

MTO Driver’s Handbook: Safe and Responsible Driving, Stopping for pedestrian crossovers

Pedestrian crossovers are designated areas that allow pedestrians to safely cross roads where there are no traffic lights. Always watch for pedestrians and people using wheelchairs at these crossings.

Pedestrians may push a button to make the overhead yellow lights flash to warn drivers that they will be crossing. Pedestrians should point or make an indication to drivers that they want to cross before entering the roadway, and try to make eye contact when possible.
