Motorcycles keep taking over Bronzeville pedestrian bridge, and residents have had it
CHICAGO -- Motorcycles and motorbikes often zoom right across a South Side bridge meant for pedestrians—and it was recently caught on camera recently.Neighbors in Bronzeville say it is an ongoing problem, and they have serious safety concerns.Imagine walking on any pedestrian bridge and being forced to jump out of the way—as motorcycles can be heard coming head-on.
But neighbors are all too familiar with it.'We're tired of it,' Olguin said.That is because this is not the first time motorcycles and more have come onto the bridge-far from it. Back in 2021, CBS News Chicago reporter Meredith Barack reported on the same problem of motor vehicles taking over the 41st Street pedestrian bridge. Neighbors cannot understand how and why the problem continues.'We pay taxes here,' Olguin said.
