Thanks Marilyn, but no, none in my area are audible, however I will check on
what I can do to get audible ones installed.
Thanks,

Hi Ken,
Do you have Audible Pedestrian Signals on any of the streets you cross? I
live in Suffolk County in NY and I have been working with others putting
them in where I have consumers request them . I did one yesterday. 
Marilyn and Anna
