Default Meter reader needs a boat

Here's one I pass by on a regular basis. The meter is on the side of a building, over a bridge. There is no stream bank. The drop off over the edge against the building is a good 12 feet.

Sometimes, all I can do is shake my head, 'cause there's no sense wondering why.

I guess the 'working space' is there, but you just have to stand on the sidewalk and lean over to utilize it. That's an older service. It'll be interesting to see if it gets relocated when it gets upgraded. It's interesting one's like this that I keep my eye on.
