There will be an optimum number of bridges across the Thames. Nobody is claiming that they all should be shut all the entire river paved over to allow maximum access! Some claim that more bridges need to be opened up to traffic to minimise the risk of getting caught in the rain or blown by the wind. But that needs to be put against the fact that 75% of the population is either overweight or obese and more active travel, rather than just getting behind the wheel, would lead to us being healthier and happier Londoners. There's an entertaining video on how London continues to be shaped by its river crossings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWZ9ZVRQ0Nw |
