Signage is provided in the upper body portion, featuring instructions in a first portion for vehicles, including a stop indication, and signage in a second portion approximately 90° from the previous portion for pedestrians waiting to cross the street in which vehicles are traveling. A motor assembly drives the wheel assembly. A controller separate from the moving assembly remotely controls the movement and the operation of the movable assembly.
