A nearby city call these crossings as “Gora¹ Lanes”, an attempt to make walking fun, attractive, and accessible to more people.

From the screenshot² below, it’s something like an arty zebra (or “continental”) crossing, and I saw minimal use of crossing:markings=artwork in #OpenStreetMap, and taggable with crossing:markings=yes.

I wonder how you folks might tag it.

¹ - Gora is an acronym from “Green Open Reclaimed Access”

I’m not sure sacrificing clarity for quirkiness is progress.
