We hope Places for London, the @TfL property company, will give serious thought to additional cross-river bridges, over Bow Creek, to Goodluck Hope and/or City Island as part of these proposals for the Limmo Peninsula, which is on the boundary of Newham and Tower Hamlets 👇
"Places for London wants to create a joint venture (JV) to bring forward the scheme on the Limmo Peninsula in Newham. The site encompasses TfL’s existing estate, with the potential for other sites to be added in future," insidehousing.co.uk/home/tfl…

Finally! This vital safe route onto the Isle of Dogs is reopened 🎉
It's been an awful long time coming but we're so pleased to report that the Bridge by Cascades has been reopened and the temporary wall/hoardings removed this morning, meaning this vital section of the Thames path is now fully accessible!

Cascades Bridge update: The works have been completed. Due to current weather conditions and material that has to be removed, it is unsafe to remove the hoarding and unlock the bridge at this time. Once the wind has dropped the hoarding will be removed and the bridge reopened.

We understand the bridge works by Canal & River Trust for the Cascades bridge are completed. The final step to allow the route to be reopened is for the hoardings by Gaucho to be removed by Canary Wharf Group. We hope to see this progress imminently.

This is a really important route on and off the Isle of Dogs - hope it's finally fixed soon 🤞
A positive update from Canal & River Trust on the Cascades bridge: Following approval for access from third party landowners, a crane is booked to install the new steelwork at the bridge for 10/01/24. We are hopeful that the works will be completed before the end of January.

This is so frustrating. @CanalRiverTrust have closed a popular and busy walking/cycling route. Repeated timelines for when works to fix/replace the bridge have been missed and now they don't appear to even have a concrete answer for when it'll be fixed.
It's disappointing to learn from @CanalRiverTrust that the bridge by Cascades will not be replaced before the end of this year. The article below highlights how repeatedly we've seen the timelines given for reopening the path missed. reclaimourriver.com/2023/08/…

In March, C&RT were hopeful the works would be completed by June. In July, they were hopeful the works would be completed by September. In August, the works were confirmed to be taking place in November. In November, the works were confirmed to be taking place in December.

At present, it appears that they aren't even able to put a clear timeline of when in 2024 this long running saga will finally conclude.
