In response to the query regarding the zig-zag lines either side of the Pelican Crossing: they are there to prevent cars parking near to the crosswalk.

Unfortunately the zebra crossing on Abbey road has moved about 20 metres down the road since the Beatles photo so this crossing although on Abbey Road isn’t where the Beetles crossed. I’m suprised there’s no one on it as there’s nealry always hordes of Japanese and American tourists recreating the famous crossing.

I asked this on VGT, but maybe this time I can get a Brit ear: Why is the centerline zig-zagged on that road?
