To be fair, they did ensure there was a pedestrian route. They had a ramp... one that went out onto the bike lane. Obviously the intent was that you walk out into the bike lane and go to the bicycle crossing.

This meant getting out from the protection of the jersey barriers and barrels and standing out on the 403 bridge road with only warning pylons separating you from traffic. Not so much as a curb.

With traffic going at highway speeds. Directly oncoming. With babies.

A very nice accommodation.

I see that with the construction on the bridge they've finally slapped down an asphalt ramp over the stairs so you don't have to go out into the now-nonexistant bike-lane anymore.

Next all they need to do is actually secure the crosswalk over the ramp. Seriously, all they need is this:
