Blackfriars Bridge widening
New Civil Engineer magazine's online version has some interesting pictures
of the widening works on the downstream side of Blackfriars Bridge. So something really is happening behind all those hoardings... http://www.nce.co.uk/news/structures...215416.article I expect being able to expand the piers above the waterline was a bit of a bonus when it came to the detailed design...

A word of warning: As from 17 March 2010 the New Civil Engineer web site will be subscription only. To gain access, you will need a subscription to NCE magazine (£99 peer annum) or be a fully paid-up member of the Institution of Civil Engineers. So enjoy it while you can - just for today. ;-) |

It is a great pity but is undoubtedly the shape of things to come. |

It's been around for 3 years, some idiot in Network Rail's PR section probably drew it... http://www.networkrailmediacentre.co...-bank-2c9.aspx Paul S |
