Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Pedestrians deftly defy TTC construction. It was certainly unsafe; but some pedestrians took a TTC construction zone at Yonge St. and St. Clair Ave. in their stride yesterday. Most high-stepped it across the tracks - some directly in front of oncoming street cars. Others; like the man in the motorcycle helmet; below right; tripped and stumbled. There were no signs pointing to a safe crossing at the site.
