Abstract:

A pedestrian hybrid beacon (PHB) is a traffic control

device similar to a European pedestrian signal

(PELICAN) that was imported to the US and adapted by

engineers in Arizona to increase motorists’ awareness of

pedestrian crossings at uncontrolled marked crosswalk

locations. A PHB is distinct from pre-timed traffic signals

and constant flash warning beacons because it is only

activated by pedestrians when needed.
