go on the walk path. If, however you are going the other way and are
forced to the right and your wheel's hit the curb you have a pretty good
chance of falling into traffic.
I think letters should be sent both to the county and The Village's highlighting this terrible exposure so if there is an accident it can be
established the proper authorities were warned and ignored the problem.
If you're so afraid of the bridge, why use it ?? No one is forcing you to risk life and limb to cross that bridge. There are alternatives to using the bridge...

Just sayin' . . .
