Whenever I walk over a rail bridge recently, I find I can barely look over the bridge down to the track. I'm not a midget (5'8"). I assume it is a recent criteria for rail bridges to have barriers a certain height.
How high do bridge barriers have to be nowadays?
How recent is the rule/legislation on this?
I guess some people will not be bothered by this as you will be taller than me but I have to sadly stand on tiptoes.
I try to get around this problem by looking at the end of the bridge where there are normally metal fences which you can look through. It is annoying for me however. I assume I'm not alone here.
