Transport for LondonZebra crossings
- Zebra crossings are black and white stripes from one side of the road to the other, just like a zebra.
- Traffic should stop if drivers see you waiting to cross.
- Wait on the pavement until all the traffic has stopped.
- When it is safe to do so, walk straight across the crossing.
- Make sure you keep looking and listening for traffic as you cross.
If the zebra crossing has a traffic island in the middle, you must treat this as two crossings.
- First cross to the traffic island using your Green Cross Code, then STOP.
- Use the Green Cross Code again to cross the second part of the road. Remember to keep looking and listening.
