Hello GTP!

While driving around SSR7, I noticed a very strange looking set of structures that many you have probably seen. I was wondering what in the world they are

The reason I'm so curious, is of course the never-ending pursuit to see of all of these SSR tracks are connected. We've already seen how the large bridge on SSR7 is visible in the distance on SSR11 in Gran Turismo 3. We've also seen photos of how SSR5 and SSR11 have bridges near the hairpins which look almost identical, seeming to hint at another possible link.

If these are somehow visible on another SSR track, it will make the whole thing even more intriguing.

Here is the photo. Sorry for the extremely bad quality.

What is it..? And has anybody seen similar structures on any other SSR tracks?

Note: these structures are visible outside of the track just after passing over the bridge, located on the opposite side from which the fireworks can be seen.
 
There's something in me saying they're some kind of cranes/supporting structures, something along the lines of what's seen in the distance from the last corner on SSR5 and what I seem to remember also being visible on SSRX' dock section. If they're found to be the same, we're gonna have a hard time rethinking the SSR City map.

These?

Strangely, these are visible just after a sign marked "bay-side" on SSR5. What I was thinking, is that the bridge in SSR7 may be over water, and that these cranes or whatever they are would be part of a loading dock.

Obviously, we're missing any view of a bridge from this shot. And it also doesn't add up with the "7" signs in the tunnel on SSR5. So this is extremely confusing.

These tracks very well may be linked up somehow, but there is so much conflicting evidence that it makes it seem unlikely.
 
They do have similarities, that much is certain. As I said, though, the more "evidence" is found, the harder it is to make the actual connection between the tracks, if there is one.
 
yeah they're definitely cranes for unloading cargo ships

This is the first I've heard of the SS tracks being located in the same city. That would make sense though.

Are the cranes visible on the main part of the bridge in SSR7 or is it near the ends?
 
I saw the bridge off in the distance at SS5. Has anyone seen the ferris wheel from the other SS routes?
