WELL, what a surprise, the Twin Sails Bridge keeps breaking down and closing to traffic and boats.
I don’t like to say it but I have to say: we told you so! Over two years ago, we were all saying it should be a flyover and not a lifting bridge.
It’s so obvious that if it was a flyover it would always be open to boats and traffic.
If an icon was required, there still could have been towers each side of the bridge in the shape of sails, or better still, as has been suggested, twin glass towers, as then it would always be visible, not just on the rare occasions when the lifting bridge opens!
