A Moving Sidewalk
To remedy the congested traffic of the Brooklyn Bridge, it was recently proposed to construct a movable sidewalk extending along its whole length. This will resemble very much the moving boardwalk at the Chicago World’s Fair, and, like it, will be provided with seats. To protect the passengers, the entire length will be covered by a glass shelter. The sidewalk itself will move at a rate of ten miles an hour.
Such a contrivance, if successful, will prove a great boon to those who pass daily between New York and Brooklyn. It might be well, however, not to experiment with such an important thoroughfare as the Brooklyn Bridge, at least until the new East River structure is completed.
