Trans pedestrian crossing unveiled in London to show ‘everyone is welcome’
The Metro says a new ‘trans crossing’ for road users has been installed in a London borough.
The move aims to show that ‘everyone is welcome’ in Camden, in the north of the capital – but disability campaigners have expressed concerns about the plan, with activists highlighting how it can confuse guide dogs.
New road markings depicting the blue, white and pink flag – which represents the transgender community – make the crossing one of the first of its kind in the UK.
It was unveiled on Monday near Gay’s The Word – a community book shop selling queer fiction and other literature.
