You are right. People have a right to walk on multimodal paths. My thoughts are that "they" were trying to get a bridge across and were granted an O.K. for this.
Sometimes we must accommodate ourselves to some disappointment.

No! On a pathway you can step off into the grass to avoid being hit by an inattentive cart driver, on the bridge there is no where to go.

Walking is a form of exercise enjoyed and practiced by many, many Villagers. It's one of the best forms of exercise for people in our age range. Many go on long walks and enjoy the scenery and interest of different places. It is a reasonable expectation that crossing over the Chitty Chatty bridge (or any bridge for that matter) is something that walkers will do. Not to have planned for that accommodation, knowing the demographics of the area, was incredibly short-sighted. The "cart paths" are definitely multi-modal and it is incumbent upon everyone to practice the safe sharing of this resource. If you encounter a walker on the path, SLOW DOWN and PASS SAFELY . . . and, yes, sometimes this may mean stopping and pausing to let various users of the path clear . . . be it a walker, biker, person on a motorized wheelchair, golf cart, etc. -- please try to be smart, be courteous and thinking of others not just yourself in order to keep all of us safe.

Have met walkers at the top of the 441 golf cart bridge.....got my attention. At least on the CC bridge you can see them.
