Concerns over lack of pedestrian and bicycle separation had been raised one year before opening.

We were afraid that if we designated a bicycle path, cyclists might move too fast. Therefore, from the very beginning, the concept was so that pedestrians could stop to sit on benches and admire the views. - Warsaw Mayor in April 2023

The bridge is like a stroad. Bicycles are making sudden moves to avoid collisions with groups of pedestrians. Bicycles cant travel efficiently and tourists can't enjoy views in piece.

Like a stroad: Designed for two incompatible uses, failing at both.

Wouldn’t the solution if you want a view be to have a larger area at the middle, with side portions you wouldn’t walk to if you’re simply trying to get over?

If it’s a road, it’s not a tourist stop - the word stop being very operative there.
