In Vienna, as early as 2015, gay couples were allowed to perform at traffic lights in the city. Later, Munich followed suit. But only temporarily.
The debate has been partly present at home. In any case, it has been decided how expensive it would be to replace all traffic lights on Frederiksberg with cone-neutral markings.
While both Aarhus and Nordfyn's municipalities have rejected the idea. The latter's mayor called the idea nonsense in 2019.
But in both the German city of Munich and the Austrian city of Vienna, they have already gone even further.

Vienna already introduced gay traffic lights in 2014, so that both bosses and lesbians could feel represented. And in 2015, Munich temporarily followed suit.
So several years before the debate about cone-neutral traffic lights arose here at home. However, DR's fact-checking program 'Detektor' also established in the same year (2019, ed.) that 'no one was talking about 'con-neutral traffic lights', because Kristlig Dagblad wrote an article about it.
– In other words: I think it's completely silly to start wasting gunpowder on something like this, Nordfyn Municipality's then mayor Morten Andersen told Fyens Stiftstidende, when Bogense, which is part of the municipality, got two new traffic lights in 2019.
On the whole, it does not seem that traffic lights are being changed here at home. In any case, the debate has settled down. Neither the citizens nor the municipalities have any interest in spending money on it.
Speaking of costs, it cost the citizens of Munich 10,000 euros, equivalent to just under 75,000 kroner, to redo some of the city's traffic lights. Nevertheless, the proposal was voted through with ten votes in favor and seven votes against.
Here at home, TV2 Kosmopol, the former TV2 Lorry, calculated in 2020 that it would cost several million kroner to replace the green and messy men at traffic lights in Frederiksberg.
