Are you saying there is a pedestrian controlled light, that is you press the button?

HI,
 
thanks to all that let me know on where to buy kitchen aids.  I ordered a few things from A to Z.
 
I now have another question.
 
My apartment building is in the middle of a busy street.  The bus drops me off right across from my front entrance.  There is a controlled light at this crosswalk and the problem is I don't know when the light changes.  I can travel about 100 yards in each direction to get to intersections that are light controlled but its a hassle.
 
It would make life a lot easier if they installed one of them sound announcers that go chirp-chirp. How do I get one of them installed?
 
If nobody is there at the light then I am taking my chances crossing the street every time.
 
If I was a better cane user than I wouldn't mind walking but...
 
 

Candi
