arrows on the streets of Toronto

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2017.08.21

I've figured out the small arrows on the streets of Toronto that point from the center of the street to the curbs. Each arrow points to the location of a storm drain. I suppose they're located in the center of the street to help crews find the things when they're buried in water or ice or slush.

As a regular cyclist about the city, it's been a bewildering experience to have them turn up in increasing numbers.
