The kick pushed him over and into tne nearest lane of traffic on the bridge. Bur in a letter, KWH Constructors project man- ager Dennis Dupasquier said the two employces have a different version. “The two workers involved have related that Mr. Zimich, cycling illegal- ly at considerable speed downhill rawards rhem, was cordially asked by the first worker to slow down. Mr. Zimich refused and whilst directing a stream of profanities towards the first. worker cycled past him in a totally reckless, unsafe and illegal. manner towards the second work- er. This worker, having witnessed the dangerous actions of Mr, Zimich, nat- urally assumed a defensive position and the unfortu- nate result was a collision with Mr. Zimich ending up on the roadway.” Dupasquier said that as a result of the News story, all the workers’ cars have been vandalized, tires have been slashed on construc- tion vehicles aad physical threats have been made against company workers through anonymous calls. Dupasquier said his company has been work- ing on the bridge for three months. Extra signs were posted warning cyclists of the workers’ presence and reminding cyclists of their legal obligation to dis- mount when approaching pedestrians.
