Plans lodged to build bridge between Canary Wharf and Rotherhithe

A planning application has been lodged to build a pedestrian and cycle bridge connecting Canary Wharf and Rotherhithe. The proposed design would create the longest bascule bridge in the world, an elegant, wishbone-like structure that opens to allow tall ships to pass through. Southwark Council’s masterplan comprises more than a dozen individual projects, including a skyscraper by renowned architect David Chipperfield.
