There is a diagonal crossing in Wellingborough if you wish to cross the
boarder to have a look. It is at a cross roads and, because the roads are
not at 90 degrees to each other, there is a long and a short diagonal - it
is across the short diagonal. It was added to an existing all red stage in
1998 and has caused no problems.

Subject: [TCUG] Diagonal pedestrian crossings at junctions.
Dear all,
I wonder if anyone could shed some light on diagonal pedestrian crossings at
signalised junctions. I have recently received a message from a member of
one of my authorities Pedestrian Consultative groups who was getting quite
excited about crossingsof this nature, apparently this person had heard
discussion about such a feature in Balham on a Radio 4 programme
"Routemasters" (2 June 04) and now sees this as the answer to all of her
prayers.
If anyone has experience of this type of crossing and could give me some
background, problems, pitfalls, legal, all the usual stuff without getting
embroiled in a convoluted talking shop I'd be very grateful.
Many thanks.
