Tag:crossing=traffic_signals

This tag is used for traffic light controlled pedestrian crossings.

How to map

Set a node on the highway where the transition is and add highway=crossing + crossing=traffic_signals.

Draw a way which can be used by pedestrians to cross the road and add tags highway=footway + footway=crossing + crossing=traffic_signals.

Nearby can also be a traffic light (highway=traffic_signals) on another node.
