The bridge also acts as a bascule for when boats are crossing and in the winter of 1952 a double-decker bus jumped over the gap during the time that the bridge was opening. Although the bridge does let boats through, the river traffic has decreased immensely over the past years.

Due to this the drawbridge requires a 24 hours’ notice before opening the bridge and there is an upper level walkway atop of the bridge and between the towers that is often used by tourists.
