I have got to disagree with this. That curb is not a sidewalk and not meant to be walked on. The 'railing' is far to low to do so safely even if the curb was wide enough to safely walk. A strong gust from a passing truck (at speed) could easily blow someone over the side of the bridge if they were walking where you suggest.
