It helps keep large vessels from running into the platform along the normal direction of travel.

The structures shown there are very similar to the ones at the Tower of Wind and only slightly larger - but I couldn't find any information on aquaculture in that part of the Tokyo bay, so I'm still hoping for inside information by locals or travellers - unfortunately it is a bit far from Germany so I can't just pop around the corner to see for myself...

Like it just ends in the water, it's like a portal or something. I don't know how to describe it, it's a sort of unnerving but awed feeling I get looking at the road just vanishing into the sea. Nice Find indeed. That’s one of the craziest things. Like it just ends in the water, it’s like a portal or something.
