Getting the bridge part of the routable network would indeed be a good
start, and I bet there will be a rush to take a proper look!

The press information suggests there are spots where the cycleway widens
closer to the original metal barrier. Might be multiple
tourism=viewpoint or perhaps highway=passing_place?
Another oddity from the photos though - the surface looks like wooden
boards coated with tar. Almost surface=asphalt, just not quite? I've
seen these before on rail bridges and construction sites, but not in
this quantity.
Happy (Cycle) Mapping,
James
