literally. Earlier last week a 2m section fell from the bridge, because the bridge could no longer hold on to the love locks. There are currently 700,000 locks on this bridget and you can add 300 kilos for each meter of railing.
According to most Parisians, the love lock bridge has gotten out of hand and they are scared for the security of the bridge either walking across it or taking a boat ride along the Seine. There is even a petition that has been started by
No Love Locks, their motto is Free your heart Save our bridges! So far there are 5000 signatures!
Recently
other bridges and other places have been targeted love lock places such as the Eiffel Tower, Canal Saint Martin (where Amelie skipped rocks),
Paris is the city of love, but I don't know if attaching a lock to a bridge and throwing away the key equals everlasting love. Have you locked your heart in Paris ?
