Many legs wriggled on the pedestrian crossing

When the light turned green, the people who had been waiting for the signal began to walk at once. A large number of feet were walking from the other side. A young woman's legs, wearing pitch-black pumps, were also walking down the intersection toward me.

I wondered when it started. When did the striped pattern of the pedestrian crossing become just a horizontal line? In the old days, crosswalks were made up of interconnected squares that looked like a ladder on the floor, but before I knew it, they were all per-turns with no ladder supports. At first, the lack of a prop made the ladder seem unstable and uncomfortable, but that was short-lived. I soon got used to it.
