From what I know this is only true if it hasn't got an island in the middle. If it has, the the driver can go on a flashing amber light. I'd wait personally plus pedestrians have right of way on the road too.
Works the same with zebra crossings, if they are crossing from your side to the other, you have to wait unless their is an island with bollards etc in the middle, then you can set off once they have crossed your side of the road.
