Well its a bit better than Adelaide. We were like Sydney and then the stickers disappeared and with it the "auto introduction" of the pedestrian cycle. However the times that buttons need to be pressed is a closely guarded secret. The local Council owns the roads and subcontracts traffic operations to the state "Main Roads" department. If there is a problem you ring "Main Roads" and the response is can't change anything have to refer to Council as we are subcontractors. Won't disclose programming either (Melbourne has it as Open Data) So we get such niceties as:

* Lights adjacent a shopping centre needing to be pushed after 6pm (or is it 7pm?) even though the centre doesn't close or die down in activity till 9pm

* Having to press buttons at each side of an intersection unlike the cars (e.g. for a North South movement a car arriving from either the North or the South will get a cycle, but for walking people if you arrive at the North East Corner and see someone at the South West Corner you need to press two buttons to get both sides lit, even though it doesn't affect cycle timing

* Minor roads crossing major roads that cross major roads stay green all the time for drivers, but not for walkers (but did prior to the pandemic). You need to press the button and wait 20-30 seconds or in some bad cases wait press the button to cross the major road as well to force a new cycle and then get your green after 90 seconds.

Frankly Sydney is streets ahead as it least its not a secret. But still as other commentators might point out, I've seen in suburban Tokyo to cross a major road signs saying "Between 11pm and 5am press this button to cross the road. If you are blind between 11pm and 5am press this other button to cross the road with a beeping noise".
