trigger_playermovement is an e2 available in all Source games. It can be used to control player's movement options, for instance by automatically ducking or forcing walking speed.

Warning:Don't kill this trigger while players are touching. Players will stay in duck, walk or disable jump mode

Warning:Players will remain stuck in duck, walk, or disable jump mode if they die within the volume and the round subsequently resets. This behavior is not removed until the player enters and exits the trigger volume again after respawning. Untested in other games, but you should probably not use this entity in a place where players could die while touching it shortly before round reset.
