The Walthamstow Marshes Landscape Design Framework and Proposals envisages two huge ramps to improve access to the High Bridge, one in Spring Hill, the other on the footpath beside the marina.
The above drawing comes from Walthamstow Marshes Landscape Design Framework and Proposals. At the bottom lefthand corner is the Riverside Café. The marina building (to the right and slightly above the centre) is mostly obscured by a tree.
The ramps are probably a good idea but these are massive ramps for quite a low bridge (presumably the name is ironic?). No doubt the existing (and unnecessary) railings on the towpath will be removed so that it is possible to get to the ramp from Spring Hill without going under the bridge?). |
