Conection -signal- between Plateau de Kirchberg and city centre of Luxemburg capital city at the photo is captured curving plastic walls ……

„To use its proper name, the Grand Duchesse Charlotte Bridge is a massive slab of red steel connecting the main city centre with the Plateau de Kirchberg, home of several important modern European institutions and many international banks..
The Red Bridge's stark geometric lines and vivid colour, coupled with its sheer size, make it a landmark visible from many parts of the city. It was built in the early 1960s, is 355m long and stands 85m high. Some years ago, it had a reputation for having things - and people - thrown off it1. There were even signs on the roads beneath warning drivers of falling objects.
This has now been curtailed by curving plastic walls on the outer sides of the walkways. At the city end of the bridge is the Robert Schuman monument. Schuman was one of Luxembourg's most famous sons, and is regarded as the father of the modern European Union. Grand Duchesse Charlotte ruled from 1919 to 1964, after her sister (Marie-Adelaide) abdicated because of perceived German sympathies during the First World War.
The best way to appreciate the Red Bridge is to drive or walk underneath it.“
