Zebra crossings without flashing lights

We the undersigned petition the council to support a change in the UK law to allow councils to introduce low-cost, paint-only zebra crossings on side roads to encourage more walking, after research showed they made drivers significantly more likely to stop for pedestrians.

Under current UK law, zebra crossings are allowed only if they have zigzag markings along the road before and after, and main-wired flashing lights on poles, meaning they cannot be installed at a junction and they cost up to £40,000 each.
