Such vehicular traffic shallyield the right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully within an adjacentcrosswalk and to other traffic lawfully using the intersection;
(c) Unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian control signalas provided in section 300.160, pedestrians facing any greensignal, except when the sole green signal is a turn arrow, mayproceed across the roadway within any marked or unmarkedcrosswalk.
