A photograph of a seemingly pointless structure—a small footbridge stretching about 10 feet across a "road" that's too narrow for cars—has been making the rounds online, with netizens decrying the footbridge as another example of government stupidity, waste and corruption.
While there are many examples of those around, this is apparently not one of them. It is, in fact, a "mini-footbridge" built by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) to teach children about road safety.
The MMDA even posted about the footbridge, showing it being used as it was intended to be used.
Facebook user Yves Gonzalez, who had taken the photo in question, replied to the latest outraged post about it.

That's the MMDA Children Road’s Safety Park located at Quirino Ave., Manila.

Ayan na po ang sagot.
Here are some other pictures in the park.

This just goes to show that while it's all well and good to be outraged by wasteful government spending, it's also well and good to be armed with facts before you get on your soapbox (or high horse, as the case may be from time to time).

Dapat demanda nila yung nagkalat nito na actual footbridge e, para hindi na tinutularan. Mga kagagaguhang naiisip ng pilipino para lang magkaroon ng fb likes

If the MMDA does that, they'll be inundated with outraged cries of "Protect freedom of speech!" and "No to censorship!"

relax bro, this was built to educate the kids, I've been there and my kid learned a lot.. I think adults should be given a tour inside this made facility too dahil mas maraming pasaway na adult kesa sa bata...
