Scali Cerere Footbridge

Dogana d'Acqua footbridge, Livorno
Here is how it looked, in September 2009, the old iron footbridge crossing the “Canale dei Navicelli” and linking Scali Cerere with Via Lamarmora, just in front of the “Dogana d'Acqua”.

The whole structure has been recently refurbished and its line is much better now with the side pipes included in the body of the bridge.

I managed to sneak across it, but the footbridge is not yet open to the general public.
