      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.
