Crossing the Bridge, 8.

Something a little different for this week. These large discs appear at regular intervals along the massive main cables of the Brooklyn Bridge. I’d always wondered what they were; it turns out they’re barriers to discourage trespassers from climbing up the cables to reach the top of the bridge towers — a very dangerous stunt! The door in each barrier can be unlocked to give access to authorized personnel.

A near-horizontal section of one of the main suspension cables of the Brooklyn Bridge, against a backdrop of massive white clouds with a bit of blue sky at the top. Around the middle of the cable is a large circular metal screen barrier, oriented vertically, with spokes radiating out from its center. A closed screen door is set into its upper half.
