A nearby city call these crossings as “Gora¹ Lanes”, an attempt to make walking fun, attractive, and accessible to more people.

From the screenshot² below, it’s something like an arty zebra (or “continental”) crossing, and I saw minimal use of crossing:markings=artwork in #OpenStreetMap, and taggable with crossing:markings=yes.

I wonder how you folks might tag it.

¹ - Gora is an acronym from “Green Open Reclaimed Access”

    I’m perfectly fine with the crosswalk being painted in a more interesting way, but looking at the sidewalk on the other side of the street there makes me think maybe that city has some more important things they need to work on for walkability before they should start worrying about prettifying stuff.
