An unpleasant example of car centric urban design: not only are pedestrians forced to use a subway to cross the road, but there is also no pavement alongside the road as it goes over the subway, forcing anyone walking along this side of the road (such as your intrepid photographer) to use this path that deviates from it horizontally as well as vertically.
