Bridge versus People

Our first full day in Brisbane and our plan was to walk around the city centre so we started off across the bridge. One of the first thing we noticed was the signs offering hope and help and it then became obvious that the railings had been increased in height with the addition of a stainless steel canopy type structure which does not allow anyone to climb it especially as the edge of this extension had a jagged edge. All the steel work of the bridge was also blocked in with stainless steel sheet to deter anyone from climbing it.

Its sad to think of the measures that must be put in place to protect us from ourselves
