The upper and lower ends of the saddle are formed wtih arcuate grooves on the front face thereof for engagement by metal banding straps employed to secure the saddle to an appropriate post. A manually operated push button switch for pedestrians is mounted to the lower front face of the saddle for connection with traffic signal control circuits.
