Fight the Thames Garden Bridge vanity project
A new bridge over the Thames between Waterloo Bridge and Blackfriars Bridge has been proposed.
This will be a private bridge run by a private company with no guarantee of public right of way. Existing green space along the Thames, as well as the Waterloo sunset view, will be lost.
Please help to save public space on the South Bank and over the River Thames.
Why is this important?
Please help to save the public space on the South Bank. The controversial Garden Bridge is not needed here. Public money will be wasted for a project the campaign for which was never properly and openly conducted by the previous mayor. This will cost at least 60 million pounds in public money (cost estimates are rising all the time) and will ruin the currently beautiful views from Hungerford Bridge at Embankment towards St Paul's Cathedral.
At least 30 beautiful mature trees along the South Bank Thames walkway will be cut down, and the present lovely long walkway, with its existing green open space, will be reduced.
