A bridge for pedestrian use.

Is this some kind of a North American joke I'm too Finnish to understand?

Nope, it’s a pedantic English joke, Finnishness aside. Pedestrian can mean quotidian/boring/common, so I was saying it that it doesn’t look as boring as you’ve said it is, if that makes sense. It’s a great shot

Would've assumed it a joke if it was just one comment, but had to confirm. Thanks for the compliment and the clarification!
