Even in the short video you can see someone walk across it pushing a stroller/buggy. While I was watching I was actually thinking that it needed a pedestrian sidewalk.
- mcv 8y agoYeah, lack of a sidewalk is asking for trouble. A comparable bridge in Amsterdam, the Nescio Bridge[1] across a major canal does have a sidewalk. Only at some point the pedestrian and cycle paths split and pedestrians are supposed to take the stairs, but some people still walk on the bike path. I guess the lesson is that you really do need sidewalk everywhere. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nescio_Bridge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nescio_Bridge
- Doxin 8y agoTo be fair, I often see tourists in amsterdam managing to walk themselves onto highways, ignoring the various no entry signs. At some point you'll have to educate road users instead of trying to make the roads more fool-proof.
- mcv 8y agoOn highways?! I've never seen that in Amsterdam. Tourists straying onto bike paths are sadly way too common, though.
