Signal-controlled crossings (sometimes known as Pegasus crossings) are often vital for equestrians to cross busy roads but have a high cost so it is often necessary to compare with other sites and costs. The Pegasus specification from the Dept for Transport is generally way over-engineered for needs so the BHS commonly presses for modified pedestrian crossings, simply with an additional button box set back at rider height, which can generally be produced at only a few thousand pounds more, rather than a full Pegasus crossing which is two adjacent crossings, one for pedestrians and cyclists, one for equestrians generally at more than double the cost of a pedestrian crossing.
