From Boats to Bridges #eckington 11

It’s peaceful out here. The traffic passing over the bridge is infrequent enough not to be noticeable. Perhaps the width of the bridge, its high walls and the traffic light control has something to do with it. From the docks it looks like the first arch is crumbling away. It’s almost as if the ramp has been built to support it. The next arch has branches growing underneath it like an old tree root reattempting to grow where it once was. Either that or someone’s built a blockade on one side of it. It’s almost as if someone’s trying to make a dam. It’s not to stop someone from entering the arch as they could probably do so from the other side. They must be trying to block the water. At least the arches for the boaters are clearly labelled. I wonder if it’s a one-way system. It’s a shame that you can’t see the other side.
