Sorry, my mistake, I misunderstood the question, even though I managed to repeat it.
No, PXOs are not integrated, which is why the city can install them, even when regional engineers disagree.
What I meant is that pedestrian signals are integrated into the system. We could not install one separate from the region's system.
But that’s my point. I don’t see why a pedestrian signal has to be integrated. If it’s OK for a non-integrated PXO to stop traffic without regard for the state of the main traffic signal system, it’s OK for a non-integrated pedestrian signal to stop traffic without regard for the state of the main traffic signal system. Either way, traffic is stopped on demand whenever somebody on the trail pushes a button.
