My city's finally getting these installed at one of the intersections that is being redone! They use the single rectangular 16-inch housing though, and I can't tell what company made them though, but they look like the incandescent-look models (they might be GE or Dialight, as Brockton usually uses those.) The important thing is that Brockton finally has them at at least one of their intersections,
They don't have ANY of these in Brockton, MA yet. There's a few intersections near my old high school and the V.A. hospital that still have the old incandescent worded walk signals and are very busy and dangerous. I could see those getting replaced with countdown signals like that one (they'd probably just do a retrofit job, replacing the "DONT WALK" light with the hand/man combo, and the "WALK" light with the timer.)

In my town, they've replaced all of the incandescent ped signals with countdowns.

They have similar ones around here, in places where they're not necessary, but not in places where they should be.

These are a common sight in Washington, D.C.

@WheelockAlarms Style doesn't really matter to me, so long as it's got a countdown and dotted LEDs, I'm not very fond of the Dialight ones.
