Pedestrian crossing green lights in Trafalgar Square

I was in London over Easter and found that in some of the green lights for pedestrians, the "walking man" had been replaced with symbols in various combinations: masculine, feminine, something-I-didn't-recognize.

http://metro.co.uk/2016/09/18/gay-and-here-to-stay-lgbt-traffic-lights-wont-be-removed-6135953/ says they were put up on 2016 to celebrate London Pride (the parade, not the beer) and I haven't seen them until now. We joked about having to find the right combination so we could cross together :-)

Funny that you mentioned this. I was just going thru my phone yesterday deleting pictures in expectation of filling it up again on my next trip and my picture of that crossing popped up! I'll have to remember to point this out to the folks that are traveling with me.

I also love the horse crossing signs in the area between Hyde Park and Green Park!
