The Triangle Bridge

Proposed

Isaac Eluwole

A new 41.5 m long, single-span steel bridge over the Waterworks River in east London, combining access for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians to the new Bridgewater Triangle site.

William Matthews Associates have designed a 41.5 metre-long bridge for a new single-span steel bridge over the Waterworks River in east London. The new structure is a key part of the vision for a new neighbourhood of 600 homes on the Bridgewater Triangle site.

With two triangular steel trusses and four high-strength steel hangers, a skewed alignment in plan creates a visually dynamic scheme. The robust structure has been designed to appear lightweight, with a sense of permeability and openness.
