how is this Yale's fault? the bridge is owned (probably) by ConnDOT/City hydra head of responsibility.

this bridge isn't the most pedestrian friendly for a city trying to reconnect its downtown and medical districts. what do you (poster) think could make the bridge a more enjoyable walking experience (besides trash being cleaned-up)?

Start with the trash and weeds covering this bridge. It is very unsightly.

I'm sure the bridge will look nicer, have trees, etc., if the College Street development is done.

Yale should be responsible. The university is far wealthier than the city or the state.

Yale has no responsibility whatsoever for the maintenance of this bridge. It is over a state roadway and you should contact the Connecticut DOT.

It doesn't matter who has the money but who's responsibility it is and who is willing to take initiative. Maybe next time a trash bag should be brought instead of a camera.
