Re: The Bridge of Khazad-dum

There are steps up to the gates. No wagons went inside the gates.
I think you are confused as to the ingress description and surrounding environment, much as RKittle seems to be about the need for a narrow path OUTSIDE Moria.

The info I supplied earlier is not conjecture, but taken straight from OF DWARVES AND MEN for the most part of it.

Better look, and make sure its applicable to the period AFTER Moria is closed.
I am not aware of any such 'quote' other than what people have thought was a quote and direct information; same as the idea that the Witch King was Numenorean.
