Admittedly, it would have to be a pretty steep ramp if it wasn't going to be preposterously long. Hopefully the steps will weather in and become relatively unobtrusive.
The gates crossing the (dangerous) road have steps as well, being in four quarters makes it difficult for wheelchair access. From the point of the new steps up the bank, you need steps on other side as well, if you want to cross to the Avenue, which again means going through another pair of gates with steps..
