Scramble Intersection in Toronto
Aug 29, 2008 | I My Life | 660 ViewsA new type of intersection has been implemented at Yonge and Dundas called a scramble intersection. Instead of just having two sides of the street for pedestrians to cross on it stops all traffic and allows people to ’scramble’ across the entire intersection so that they are able to skip the waiting and make their way right across. This system has been used in cities with high pedestrian density for some time now but was only just implemented in Toronto.
