Yea I know and I just wondered, as it does make sense as I know how much effort it's taken to get it open todayTaxi driver's brother-in-law's best mate who heard it in the Gunners last weekend?
What work have they actually been doing since the bridge was installed? It feels like the span of bridge went in more than six months ago (but I might be wrong).
Good job wearmouth bridge is lined up for millions of improvements soon cos it looks old and tired next to this new kid on the block
Yes has a fancy lighting design
I think 20m was mentioned in the recent transport plan
Parapets , lighting , drainage , health management , 5G , security , waterproofing , landscaping , paving , so not much really.
It will have colour changing lighting , but they haven't been installed yet .
I looked through the fence last night and thought the surfacing at the city hall end looked temporaryTaxi driver's brother-in-law's best mate who heard it in the Gunners last weekend?
It is
Makes sense
It will definitely feel transformative for the city in a very tangible way. I think the Spire Bridge will also be transformative, but that's a slower burn and more about commercial benefits. This will suddenly bring the SoL and Sheepfolds into the city centre (and encourage people to walk there rather than drive), connecting up the final pieces of the Keel Square/Keel Line/Culture House zone and will improve the matchday experience significantly for many of us. It is exciting, I agree.
It will be a real focal point of the city in my opinion .
I can appreciate that the landscaping is a big task but tbh the rest of it sounds like the sort of stuff that could have been sorted in a month.
