Explanation
A pedestrian hybrid beacon (PHB) is a traffic signal used at midblock crosswalks or busy roads to help pedestrians cross safely. When the lights on the PHB are dark (black), it means the signal has not been activated. Drivers may proceed through the crosswalk if it is clear. The signal will activate only when a pedestrian presses the push button.
