The bridge is surrounded by a park named Scissortail Park, where plenty people of visit each day. The cool thing about the bridge is that pedestrians can walk freely across it. At night, the bridge is lit up in an array of different colors. Also, during the holidays or on a specific holiday, the bridge is lit up with colors associated for that occasion. This spot is also a great place to take pictures.
