Back in June, after many extended delays, Oklahoma City finally completed construction on the weird, semi-out-of-place "Bridge to Nowhere" that spans NW Expressway near Wilshire.
Our world-class, 100-mile trails system just got a major upgrade! It was exciting today to cut the ribbon on our new Northwest Expressway Pedestrian Bridge! (1/2) pic.twitter.com/a6a5Zq3fUK

The bridge was supposed to make the extremely unwalkable NW Expressway slightly less unwalkable, while also providing a crossing point for the couple of dozen cyclists who ride the Hefner to Overholser Biking trial each day, but so far, it seems like the only thing it's accomplished is back up traffic while under construction.
