Panda Crossing?

So, for instance, at Bruntsfield Place/ the top of Leamington Terrace:

Or when crossing Melville Drive at Argyle Place, where planners have jury-rigged something that approximates this already...(shhh...don't tell anyone)

And it would be an excellent addition to the planned crossings/route that I blogged about earlier in the week.

The good news is:

Now, we just need to get it in the Scottish Guidance (and get my suggested name adopted!).
