Ah yes, I don't think I would have found that but I did wonder at first if the picture was showing a swivel point.

On occasion when I go shopping in Newcastle City (parking fees are extortionate) I park on the south bank/Gateshead side of the river (free parking) and walk across the bridge.

Only once have I been on it when the instruction has been given to 'clear the bridge' and despite the fact you know detailed observations are maintained and the bridge won't move until totally pedestrian free, you're never 100% confident and subconsciously quicken your pace.

Over to you
