State of the Art Pedestrian Signal for Visually Impaired Staten Islanders
New York City Transportation Commissioner Iris Weinshall and Staten Island Borough President James P. Molinaro have unveiled a new Accessible Pedestrian Signal (APS) on the corner of Castleton and Brighton Avenues in Staten Island. The new signal uses the latest in APS technology and can be programmed to play audible messages informing visually impaired users when the "walk" message is displayed for the specific street they are waiting to cross.
