First time I’ve seen the pedestrian crossing button pointing downward
On Granville Bridge with the new bike lanes, crossing is behind me @citylife #vancouver #urbanism #biketooter #city

In the US where I live (Washington state) the arrow points in the direction you want to walk. The posts usually have two buttons on them, one for each crossing direction.
Maybe this one is for the highway to hell?
A portal to hell recently opened, with a half mile of protected bike lane to boot:

This is a fantastic read that seems to come straight out of a Dirk Gently novel… But I am completely confused and have the feeling that I am missing some crucial information?
This is a satirical newspaper :)
Not real news, just jokes!
Nicely written, though! I like it! :-)
Well, I think it actually makes sense if you read the arrow like you would on a map. Up is straight ahead, down is backwards and left and right are… well, left and right. Are the buttons usually mount differently, i.e. on the side of the pole instead of the front as it is the case here?
