Finalists revealed for Nine Elms bridge competition
One of these four innovative designs will be chosen as a new pedestrian and cycle crossing between Pimlico and Nine Elms.
Wandsworth Council announced that these four bridge designs have been selected from the list of 74 entrants and will be going through to the second stage of the competition.
“I want to thank the jury panel and all of the designers who took part and made this such an exciting process. The quality of submissions went beyond our best expectations and the interest this competition has generated across London has been tremendous” said Wandsworth Council leader Ravi Govindia.
The finalists were unanimously selected by the competitions’ panel and will now set about developing their original designs into more detail propositions. The winning team is expected to be announced in the autumn.
Cllr Govindia said: “Congratulations to our shortlisted teams and I look forward to seeing their initial ideas developed further. The devil will be in the detail and the next stage will show us whether these for highly skilled and innovative design teams can meet the complex challenges that this project presents.”
The bridge is seen as a key part of the wider Nine Elms scheme, the largest regeneration project in London.
