Yes, that is the new "HAWK" beacon. It is a user-activated (via button?) to allow bikes (and maybe peds?) to cross Blair. More info on HAWK beacons, although it may not be exactly the same for the one installed here: http://john-s-allen.com/blog/?p=16
A full traffic signal is supposed to go in at E Mifflin and Webster, timed with the outer loop and coordinating with the to-be-installed (painted) counter flow lane for bikes in the 100 block of E Mifflin.
