Infrastructure Edge Sites, Southwark & Lambeth

New Vision for Bricklayers goes on show

This strategic urban design study explores how underused railway and highway infrastructure sites in Southwark and Lambeth could be reconfigured to improve connectivity, public realm quality, and active travel routes between key transport nodes and the Thames

Three London Infrastructure sites each offering opportunities to explore sustainable proposals for active re-use. The proposals for Lower Marsh Street, Waterloo and Crucifix Lane, London Bridge, investigated the existing railway infrastructure around two major termini. A third site, was the flyover and roundabout at the Bricklayers Arms interchange on the Old Kent Road. The  proposed designs offered greener, safer connections between the cycle network  to the South and North of the site and the environs of London Bridge and the Thames.

The designs were prepared in collaboration with a collaborator and architect, Michele Ragazzino. Proposals were presented to Design For London and discussed with the Southwark Council’s regeneration and planning policy department. A physical model of the proposals was exhibited at the Turner Contemporary Art Gallery in Margate and was referenced in local press coverage.
