Hello.
I agree with tp235.
And in my case, I am very strict when reviewing “bridges”.
I always rigorously examine whether the design of the bridge itself, the railings, the plaque with the bridge’s name on it, etc. are unique, what the historical background is, etc.
This is because Niantic has set the eligibility criteria for places (things) suitable for Wayspots as “the best place for adventure”. So I will not lose my position as an “adventurer” in PGO. PGO is not just about catching Pokemon.

Japan has many bridges that are worthy of visiting as wayspots, with historical structures, railings, and bridge nameplates with unique and beautiful designs.
However, there are also many people who loudly claim that “nondescript concrete bridges built decades ago” and “worn-out, corroded nameplates” have historical value to the local area, are a place for interaction, and are recognized by Niantic.
And some people have even gone so far as to call “explorers” like me a “strange player.”
For reference, I’ve attached here the previous removal request and photo.
What do you think?
