What does a pedestrian control signal show?

A pedestrian control signal is specifically designed to indicate whether it is safe for pedestrians to cross the road. When the signal shows a walking person or a green pedestrian light, it means that pedestrians can safely step into the roadway. This signal is an important safety measure that helps manage pedestrian traffic and ensures that walkers can cross streets safely, especially in busy urban areas or at intersections.

The other options pertain to different aspects of traffic management. The signal does not provide information about where bicycles can park, the speed limits for vehicles, or the requirements for vehicles to stop. Each of those elements is governed by separate signs or signals that serve different purposes in road safety and traffic flow.
