The audio begins with the bustling sounds of traffic on King Street, Aberdeen, capturing the essence of a typical day on February 25, 2012. The hum of engines and the occasional hiss of air brakes fills the air as vehicles pass by. Amidst this symphony of city sounds, the distinct beeping of a pedestrian crossing, known as a pelican crossing in the UK, punctuates the soundscape. As the beeping continues, signaling the safe passage for pedestrians, the sound of footsteps can be heard. There's a rhythm to these footsteps, reflecting the pace of the city's life. Occasionally, the chatter of voices floats over, snippets of conversations, laughter, and life moving on its usual pace. The overall ambience created by these sounds paints a vivid picture of the hustle and bustle of King Street, with the 'Pelican' at its heart, orchestrating the harmony between pedestrians and traffic.
