Green women have replaced the green men at a set of traffic lights in Tooting.

The traffic lights near Coverton Road are one of twelve that have been installed by TFL across South and West London.

Felicity Luckett, TfL's asset operations performance manager, said:

"We are excited to have created a set of new diverse green woman pedestrian crossings to mark International Women's Day.

"It is important we commemorate the hard work, contributions and success of women across London every day and even more so on International Women's Day.

"We hope that by increasing the visibility of women with these signals in public and shared spaces, Londoners will be reminded of the huge contributions of women."
