Take a look at the proposed cycle and pedestrian bridge and if you support the idea please read on and vote to make it happen!

Local Architectural practice reForm Architects have been shortlisted for their design for a pedestrian and cycle bridge linking Rotherhithe with Canary Wharf which is currently un-built but with a huge demand. Public support is critical in gaining momentum at this stage of their proposal and the ?Peoples? Choice Award? is the ideal time to show support for the design which will help to bring it one step closer to being built.


If you support this design please vote by either

emailing [email protected] and writing ?I vote for Rotherhithe Bridge ? Transport Infrastructure in the New London Awards?

- OR -

By tweeting your choice using ?#NLAwards16 RotherhitheBridge?

- OR-

In person at the New London Awards exhibition at the Building Centre, WC1


Predicted to carry 13,000 clean commuters every day - that?s equivalent to 15 full Jubilee Line trains or over 170 full double decker buses.

Less congestion on road and rail and cleaner air.

There are no bridges in East London. If built the Rotherhithe Bridge will bring immediate benefits to both sides of the river.

To find out more about the project including an animation, see the Rotherhithe Bridge website -

If you support this design please VOTE now and SHARE to spread the word , thanks!

There's a foot tunnel at Greenwich. You have to get off and push, which takes a bit of time, but compared with dog-legging through Rotherhithe, it's probably as quick. And there's a lot less traffic.


Disclaimer: I have no connection with anyone involved with the design, build, financing, operations or maintenance of the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, nor do I, or anyone I know, stand to profit from its construction.

There's restrictions, except for certain bikes (like Bromptons) in peak times

    • Before going to Social Media it is always worth checking out the details: Southwark's spending for this year: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and As you will see, as with most if not all London Boroughs, shed loads goes on social care and children's services.  The cost of paying for residential care, and for 'specialist schools is massive.  As with other boroughs they have been hit hard by austerity under the coalition government.  And the failure by successive governments to sort out social care.  That is a thread all in its own rights. Local authorities of all political persuasions across England are facing tough times, several have gone into administration: Birmingham, Woking, Thurrock, Croydon, Slough, Northamptonshire, and Nottingham and 11 are on bailouts.   Covid will not have helped.  Some will have made some poor investment decisions in the past eg Thurrock and Woking;  Some total mismanagement and one has been hit by historical debt through not paying their workers fairly (Brum).   Reform promise simple solutions to cutting spending.  Not that easy is it Nige?
