Oh oh... This doesn't look good anymore today. In the meantime, a large gap has opened up towards the forest. There are no more planks. Those that still exist in the front part have been rotten for years, I wouldn't step on them anymore. If someone doesn't do something soon, it's over. The bridge is already only passable with high risk.

On the narrow bridges along the Amper, you have to be a bit careful not to pinch your fingers while cycling. There's little space between the handlebars and the railing.

A bridge that makes your hair stand on end when you cross it. Whether the boards hold or not. Like other long-suffering users, you clamber across the iron girders to the barrier, hold on, and then quickly make it across the rest of the way. Then take a deep breath...
