Absolutely!

The bridge cost a bit over 300 millions, but the car brains are super angry that they "built a bridge for bicycles and that bridge cost one BILLION euros!"

It's really crazy watching the argumentation! There's nowhere for the cars to go in the downtown end of the bridge – the traffic there would turn into an absolute porridge.
