Editing Belisha beacon (section)

===New Zealand===
Outside of the UK, Belisha beacons are perhaps most prominent in [[New Zealand]], where they are required at all marked pedestrian crossings. Traffic regulations require a controlling authority to erect on each pole, indicating the presence and position of a pedestrian crossing, either an internally illuminated amber globe not less than {{convert|300|mm|in|abbr=on}} in diameter, which has a lamp that provides 40 to 60 flashes per minute, or a {{convert|400|mm|in|abbr=on}} diameter fluorescent orange disk. The pole must be erected within {{convert|2|m|ft}} of each end of a crossing. The poles must be not less than {{convert|75|mm|in|abbr=on}} in diameter, and not less than {{convert|2|m|ft}} in height, and must be clearly painted with alternate parallel bands of black and white, each having a width of approximately {{convert|300|mm|in|abbr=on}}. Disks are a relatively new addition as a replacement for illuminated globes, having only become prominent since the 1990s.
