98. Diagonal Pedestrian Crossing

What it is: Crossing that lets pedestrians walk any way across an intersection
Invented: 1969
Average Price: Free to the public 

A pedestrian scramble (which is called a scramble crossing or diagonal pedestrian crossing) is known as sukuranburu-kosaten in Japan. These scrambles are quite common, and over 300 of these intersections exist. Though this isn’t a product in the sense that you could buy it from a store like Walmart or Amazon, it is still very important to Japan.

More than 3,000 pedestrians can cross in the scramble outside of Shibuya Station in Tokyo. Ginza’s Sukiyabashi is another large scramble in Tokyo. Photographs from that crowded intersection have become somewhat symbolic of Tokyo as a whole. The first scramble was installed in Kumamoto in 1969.
