Cycle/pedestrian bridge - design by local architects ready to be built!


Recommended Posts

I noticed a couple of posts referring to the TfL consultation on a new river crossing from Rotherhithe to Canary Wharf. Did you know that local architecture firm reForm Architects have designed a pedestrian and cycle bridge which is ready to be built and will work at all of TfL's suggested locations and heights. They began their work as a self start project with no client, brief or fee and together with engineers Elliott Wood are passionate about this project which I'm sure would never have got to the stage it is now at without their tireless enthusiasm and all the local community support for their work. If you are completing the survey and like the design, Please mention reForm Architects / ElliottWood engineers specifically in your responses in the survey. More info on this design here:-

    • A quick Google search found this service in Devon including several large print books and a home delivery service for those that can't get to a library.  Might be worth a look if you haven't already considered this.  Good luck.   https://discover.librariesunlimited.org.uk/our-services
    • Visited Dynamic Wines over the weekend. Great place, and good value!
    • Bit over-stated that.  Fully-paved front drives cause same/worse issues.  The hermetically-sealed, boundary-to-boundary hard surfaces you see all over Dulwich prevent natural rainwater from continuing to nourish the dirt/clay under the house.  Houses around ED have very very shallow foundations which is the root cause, frankly.  I just spent a year renovating a house down to the foundations and they barely exist and the brickwork is easily disturbed by any ground movement. Last time I checked, humans can't breathe their foundations can they?  But most humans require oxygen...  This foundations trope is the go-to bogey man.  Defo not having a go at you Dave, I'm sure you'd prefer more trees to fewer trees, but short-term vs long term decisions must be made.  Choices: Do we want a fully-paved, grey, barren landscape or greenery with all the health & beauty benefits?
