It's an interesting design bridge I know it lifts but have never actually seen it lift up it's a nice place to get some good photos or stand and look up towards the waterfall steps especially when the sun is shining off of it. I enjoy walking across and seeing all the locks and often see people reading the locks and trying to find the oldest one on there. I have known this bridge most of my life and although it's a great design I never really looked in to it it was basically just another bridge but all the locks as made it popular and brings people to it I actually went to see all the locks and it got me interested so I looked in to the design of the bridge and found out quite a bit it's nice to see the bridge with the locks and allows people to become interested and like myself look in to its background

What an intriguing metaphor this bridge presents. Spanning between quays (sic) and yet so many locks that couldn't be opened! I'm reminded of the word's of The Lord Jesus Christ ... 'I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.' (The Bible. Revelation.1v18) He open's up life's possibilities.

Pero's Bridge is a pedestrian footbridge that stretches across Bristol's floating harbor. It's a well-known gathering spot and a crucial component of the Harbourside area. The bridge connects the bars, restaurants, and attractions near Millennium Square, such as the Bristol Aquarium, Sky View Bristol, and others.

As short footbridges go, this was pretty good. Couples have encrusted it with padlocks and it crosses scenic water in a lively part of town. It goes all the way from one side to the other and is solid underfoot with space for boats underneath, and these are all good qualities in a bridge.

This is a pedestrian footbridge which I believe operates it's just aptly. The railing and the bridge are both stable. Locals and tourists alike put their locks here. Please don't, it's a waste of metal and it's already getting kind of full. Great views in this area.

Historic bridge designed to honour a West Africa slave who lived in Bristol. Unfortunately, people don’t know that history but decided to create a home for lovelocks which is honestly so insulting and disrespectful.
