Motorist ends up on pedestrian bridge to Son Espases – how does this happen?

Answer

Is the pedestrian bridge to Son Espases in Palma safe for walkers and cyclists?

The bridge is intended for pedestrians and cyclists, so its main purpose is to provide safe access without motor traffic. The concern raised by the incident is not that the bridge is meant for cars, but that its protections may not be obvious enough to prevent a wrong turn. If access is confusing, the safety of people using the bridge on foot or by bike can become an issue.
