Introduction

The London Borough of Wandsworth invited multi-disciplinary design teams from across the world to take part in a lively and interactive competition, to produce a concept design for a new cycle and pedestrian bridge across the River Thames in London, between Nine Elms and Pimlico. The purpose of the competition was to identify the best team, capable of designing and delivering a unique landmark bridge for this part of London and to explore what the various design options might be; it was not to select a specific design.

Stage 1 Brief

This bridge has the potential to become one of the most expressive and visible landmarks in London, heralding the changes that are taking place south of the river and making vital connections to the north shore.

In its early years it will be a symbolic reminder to the rest of London that the newly created district around Nine Elms has awakened – and is well worth a visit. As time goes by, it will become a much loved and much used Thames crossing: an integral part of London’s ever growing infrastructure.
