Munich has introduced same-sex couples on their traffic lights for Pride this weekend.

The new lights at pedestrian crossings show gay, lesbian and straight pairings waiting or walking hand-in-hand.

They were inspired by the Vienna traffic lights, which introduced them during this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.

Harold Klink, of German Engineering News, was one of many to praise the new lights.

‘I like the gay traffic lights in Munich!’ he said, and referencing the curved backs: ‘I think the boys should urgently go to the physio though!’

Green party politicians launched the measure, according to The Local, overcoming resistance from the Christian Social Union group.
