What is the British name for a pedestrian crossing marked with black-and-white stripes?

The British name for a pedestrian crossing marked with black-and-white stripes is a zebra crossing.

The name comes from the road markings, whose alternating light and dark bands resemble a zebra’s coat. In Britain, the stripes normally run longitudinally across the road, and the crossing is traditionally marked at each side by Belisha beacons: yellow-orange flashing globes mounted on black-and-white posts.

The modern design was introduced in Britain after experiments by the Ministry of Transport between 1949 and 1951. The first zebra crossing was installed in Slough on 31 October 1951, and the design was soon adopted widely. A common mix-up is to treat every British pedestrian crossing as a zebra crossing. Pelican and puffin crossings use traffic signals, while a toucan crossing also permits cyclists to cross. At a British zebra crossing, drivers must give way once a pedestrian has moved onto it.
