I voted yes and i have never had a license but i still think this bridge should be replaced a.s.a.p. My mom used to drive across daily and had several close calls with big trucks in the narrow lanes. About 10 years ago i was in the car with her when we drove past a bloody car accident that happened in the traffic coming in the other direction. I also tried walking across the bridge when i lived in New West. and it was downright scary, holes and huge cracks in the sidewalk that you can see the river in, big rust holes in the railings and the bridge deck noticeably flexed as large vehicles crossed. It wouldn't surprise me if the steel structure was pitted beyond repair from the lack of regular painting.
