A pegasus crossing or equestrian crossing is a type of signalised pedestrian crossing in the United Kingdom which has a special consideration for horse riders. They are named after the mythical winged horse, the Pegasus.
Normally, they are in the form of a pelican crossing but simply have two control panels, one at the normal height for pedestrians or dismounted riders, and one two metres above the ground for the use of mounted riders, and the "green man" and "red man" pictograms are replaced with horses. Additional features include wooden safety fence and a wider crossing so that the horses are further away from cars than normal.
