Previous bridge closures have brought traffic to a standstill
Plans for a new bridge over the River Trent are 'pushing forward' according to Nottingham City Council. It comes after the city council agreed costs with landowners so proposals can progress for the new pedestrian and cycle bridge across the River Trent, which would connect Lady Bay to the vast £100m Trent Basin waterside housing estate near Colwick.
Planners have said it will complement the other four bridges already built – Wilford Toll Bridge, the Suspension Bridge, Trent Bridge and Lady Bay Bridge. They believe the new bridge could connect motorists from Colwick to Radcliffe-on-Trent while reducing congestion in nearby industrial estates and around the A52 corridor near Gamston.
Recently, residents and traders in both areas on either side of the proposed new bridge indicated support for the proposals. They said it would help businesses and commuters in accessing different parts of the county while taking the strain off existing roads. “We are stretched to capacity, at the moment, for our infrastructure in terms of crossing the Trent. I really hope the minister will commit to looking at getting this business case – this initial assessment of proposals – delivered, so we can look at what our options are as well as cost and timescales for delivery.”
