Bern, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Five bridges in the city of Bern are to be secured with special nets to prevent people jumping to their deaths, the Bernese city parliament decided last Thursday 16 October. City authorities have grappled with the problem of the easy access to heights by people with suicidal tendencies in Bern for many years. A notorious venue for suicides was the Muensterplattform, behind Bern’s cathedral, overlooking the Matte. That was made secure in 1998, and no suicides have been recorded since.
