The Washington Bridge carries six lanes of traffic (plus sidewalks on both sides) over the Harlem River in New York City between the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx, connecting 181st Street and Amsterdam Avenue in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan to University Avenue in the Morris Heights section of the Bronx. Ramps at either end of the bridge connect to the Trans-Manhattan Expressway and the Cross-Bronx Expressway. The bridge is operated and maintained by the New York City Department of Transportation. It once carried U.S. Route 1, which now travels over the Alexander Hamilton Bridge.

I never made it up a British Railways high coaling stage but I did climb up this South African Railways one at East London. A rail worker is emptying coal from the wagons into the bunkers below.
There was a clear view of the city's skyline from here including the distinctive town hall tower just left of the wooden post on the left. I suspect this skyline has changed 30 years later! See below.

Took this vertical perspective from the Chong Nonsi BTS station about a year ago. I've been going through all of my files and importing RAW images into Lightroom 3 and from time to time run across one that is interesting in some way. I thought this one had a nice perspective to it and figured I'd share.
I had often wondered why they, the government people, were building such a long catwalk down this stretch of road. I got the answer not too long ago. It was for that special bus line that gets its very own dedicated lane running down Thanon Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra. Jeez, that sure narrowed that big ass road down to traffic jam size. IMHO... what a screw up. I guess they couldn't add another train that direction, so the bus was the next logical choice. I hope it helps some commuters out who can't afford to take cars cause it will likely create a bunch of new ones who no longer want the hassle of added traffic down their old beat, or maybe that was the point.

McKinsey Global Infrastructure Initiative Summit

09:00–12:00 SECTOR ROUNDTABLES
GII will host five concurrent sector roundtables, encouraging participants to take a more in-depth look at the most exciting topics in specific sectors.
TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE: HARNESSING NET-ZERO FLEETS
Transportation accounts for one-fifth of global carbon emissions, and net-zero transport fleets are a key component of reducing this footprint. From passenger vehicles to city buses and heavy-duty trucks, questions prevail around how to make such fleets a reality. This roundtable will focus on forging a path forward, including questions such as:
What needs to be solved to provide net-zero fleet alternatives across vehicle types and use cases?
What business performance requirements will underpin widespread adoption, and how can various industry players accelerate?
What infrastructure investments are necessary for a transition to the underpinning fuels, and at what pace or sequence?
McKinsey speaker: Takehito Sumikawa, Senior Partner, McKinsey & Company
Panelists:
James Heath, Chief Executive Officer, National Infrastructure Commission
Rolf Erfurt, Chief Operating Officer, Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe
Alexander Loesing, Chief Transformation Officer, Mitsubishi Fuso Truck & Bus Corporation
