    ORCHARD ROAD will be doing a month-long trial of a pedestrian "scramble crossing" like that in Tokyo's Shibuya district starting from Dec 16, in a bid to make the precinct more pedestrian-friendly.

    Shoppers will be able to cross the Cairnhill Road-Orchard Road junction diagonally, such as from H&M to Robinsons at The Heeren for a period of 30 seconds.
