Common in the US as well.

If you scroll south along Route 146/Balltown Road from
https://orthos.dhses.ny.gov/?Extent=-8225903.698222782,5284508.54974362,-8225376.103578491,5284728.604782014&Layers=2018_cache,2017_cache,2016_cache,2015_cache,2014_cache,2013_cache
you'll see a bunch of zebra-striped crossings. They all have traffic
lights with pedestrian-activated signals.

At those, the pedestrian has the right of way but only when the lights
are in the pedestrian's favour. This is still significant, since a
right turn at a red signal is lawful here if it is safe to do so and
the right-turning vehicle has come to a complete stop.
