I have often seen footage of foreign crossroads with 2 diagonal
pedestrian crossings in addition to the 4 orthogonal crossings we
usually have here in Britain. Today I found a crossroads with all six
crossings just east of Burnt Oak tube station in Northwest London.
According to the nearest person I could accost, it's been like that
for about 2 or 3 years. Is this the only one in Britain? It seems to
have been there too long to be a trial.

There's one near Battersea Park station with just one diagonal.

And another at the junction of Kingsland High Street and Shacklewell
Lane in Hackney where they added a single diagonal in summer last year.
