Barbara, one would have hoped that productivity had increased a bit since Tower Bridge was built. If it were Tower Bridge it would be a different story. I have not heard of anyone coming to London to visit Hammersmith Bridge. The existing bridge could be sold for restoration at another location. It would be nice to compare the cost and environment impact of new versus repair. I suspect the relevant authorities will not be eager to share. The Thames Barrier (they saved a few bob on the name) took 8 years I believe although its official opening was some time later. |
