Paris set to remove nearly a million 'Love Locks" left by romantic couples

Lovers who have visited Paris and had their love locked and thrown away the keys into the river, need to be worried as their padlocks are set to be removed from the Pont de Arts bridge over the River Seine.

Thousands of loved-up visitors have attached padlocks, symbolising their love,to the Pont de Arts bridge .But authorities now say the locks are weighing down the bridge..According to UK Mirror 

It comes after part of the famous bridge broke off last year, seemingly because of the weight of the padlocks.
Initially Paris authorities had floated the idea of a blanket ban on 'love locks' - with fines handed out to those caught flouting the rule.
But speaking this week the city's deputy Mayor has now ruled out the idea as heavy-handed.
Instead he urged for amorous visitors to show their affection by tying ribbons to the railings as an alternative.
But now metal grilles on the side of the Pont des Arts will be replaced by painting and then eventually clear panels to prevent people attaching
locks.

 Bruno Julliard, Paris' deputy mayor, told the BBC:

 "We want Paris to remain the capital of love and romance."Locals have also complained about the 'eyesore' locks and the behaviour of illegal vendors touting fasteners of all descriptions, amid concerns that the craze could cause irreparable damage to the city's iconic bridges.
