Future Options for the Bridge

 

A recent article in the Derby Telegraph shows an inspiring range of options for the future of the Bridge, visualised by Lathams Architects in an Options Viability Study commissioned by Friends of Friar Gate Bridge and funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.

 

We are now engaged in ongoing discussions and analysis to make sure that whatever option is chosen will be in tune with the wider development of the area and have long-term commercial viability to fund the ongoing maintenance of the Bridge.

 

Please take a look at the DET page:
