To the editor:
The new bridge would involve going way out of my way to get the the Rector St 1 and R stations vs the existing one which provides much more direct access.
I suppose the alternative for me and others is (go somewhat out of my way) to cross at Albany St intersection. With the increased pedestrian traffic crossing the road, I wonder if this might also result at some point in a fatal pedestrian accident there that otherwise could been avoided.
If the new bridge is useful for some people, then suppose to build it but it really isn’t a replacement for the existing one and think the existing bridge should not be removed at all.

This is not rocket science! Who’s the einstein who suggested to demolish the pedestrian bridge at Rector Street before the West Thames Bridge was complete? Whatever happened to common sense???
