New Civil Engineer magazine's online version has some interesting
pictures of the widening works on the downstream side of Blackfriars
Bridge. So something really is happening behind all those
hoardings...

I expect being able to expand the piers above the waterline was a
bit of a bonus when it came to the detailed design...



A word of warning:

As from 17 March 2010 the New Civil Engineer web site will be
subscription only. To gain access, you will need a subscription to
NCE magazine (£99 peer annum) or be a fully paid-up member of the
Institution of Civil Engineers.

So enjoy it while you can - just for today. ;-)


That's a pity. Their Crossrail information is far better than the official
Crossrail site...

I think I'll spend a while downloading a few drawings...

If you ever need anything from the NCE web site, just ask. ;-)

I was 10 minutes too late looking. I get "Subscriber only content".
