footbridges

some great images of footbridges have been cropping up. I'm always mystified by the enormous gap between the vernacular created for function through trial and error and the hyper-engineered solutions produced by the constriction of regulatory frameworks. as per usual, resiliency requires an increase in risk.









Top two images from SPIRO (UC Berkeley image archive) bottom image from here the amazing root bridges of india, worth the click!
