    Crosswalk bridges are pretty hostile to pedestrians. They need to be at least 4 meters/12 ft high, to accommodate standard lorries. Nobody likes climbing high stairs on every crossing. Even worse for wheelchair users.

      If only we’d invented some sort of sloped surface. Maybe call it a “ramp”?

        Scaling a 4 meter high ramps on every intersection sounds like a fucking nightmare

          Yes, because no one anywhere has ever built a ramp that made sense.

          You’re intentionally being obtuse.
