I wouldn't be surprised if you told me that the architect is Calatrava :)))

:)

In October 2023, the bridge was set to be closed for three weeks to allow repairs to its surface. According to the City Bridge Foundation, the bridge will close at 08:00 BST on Saturday 14 October and should reopen by 5 November.

Hi dear GGR ~ You are very welcome ~ Thanks for your visit and comments ~ Hanwe ~ Warm wishes

Excellent pov, Nick! HFF and a happy weekend ahead!

Hi Stephan ~ Thank you for your compliment and good wishes. Hanwe

It's a really beautiful bridge Nick, with a fabulous view at the end of it.
I hope the repairs are quickly done! I'll take a look at your links now.

A beautiful picture. HFF & a good weekend ~ Rosa.

Yes Rosa this is one my my favorite bridges with as you say one of another famous pieces of architecture by Christopher Wren who for a time lived in East Knowle.

Thanks for your good wishes ~ Hanwe ~ Nick

An iconic view of a bridge that I have crossed a few times, although I haven't seen it as deserted as this.
HFF dear Nick, and enjoy some good weather this weekend. It has rained here all day, and apart from a yoga class this morning, the only thing that was available this p.m. was some light reading and a small amount of HW. ;-)

I see it's one of your early morning photos.

Hi dear LGM ~ Yes you need to be up early to have a clear bridge (or stay up very late). This bridge is not so far from St Thomas's which I suspect put opportunity your way to stretch your legs now and then.
I'm sorry to learn that you have been confined to the house for most of the day. Here it has been cloudy after a damp start with the sun coming out to play around lunchtime for a while. Now it is back to light rain.

I hope that you enjoy some better weather over the weekend ~~~

Hi Nick, I walked across here just after it had been constructed. I think it closed down then a few days later for a while. Very nice shot indeed and at least you are devoid of crowds here. Well done.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

Hi Herb ~~~ Perhaps your footfalls started off the swaying :~) ~ Thanks for your good wishes ~ Hanwe

Hi Nick
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition
As I remember, the designers had screwed up, and not realised the cumulative effects of people walking in step to induce harmonic motion... The cost of the extra stiffening to change the fundamental frequency was millions!!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
