First pedestrian lights of woman in Australia

[Still Waters]

The silhouette of a woman will soon replace the "green and red man" at traffic lights in Richmond, as a tribute to the first woman elected to local government in Victoria.

The City of Yarra and VicRoads announced plans for the unique pedestrian signals ahead of International Women's Day on Wednesday.

It is the first time in Australia an image of a female will signal the crossing of a road.

looks like Mary Poppins let alone Mary Rogers.

This traffic light advertising is taking on.

I prefer the more informative signs:

Ours flash a pic of Usain Bolt. With good reason.

More social commentary via Traffic Lights!

Wonderful use of taxpayer money.
