#BBC London Transport Corr: The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea has decided to shut #AlbertBridge - pictured - for upto a year while repairs carried out costing £8.5m. Routine inspection discovered cracks in the cast iron component that the bridge rests on. 15k motor vehicles a week use the bridge.

"There will be a knock on impact on buses and traffic in Putney"

I look forward to the traffic stats again proving this MP's claims to be nonsense.

2/ ... #RBKC shuffled the barriers on Albert Bridge back overnight ... bet there isn't room for a non-std/ cargo bike?

#AlbertBridge

This afternoon, #RBKC has shuffled the barriers on Albert Bridge, making room for folk on bikes on the carriageway instead of the pavement.
(Is this arrangement just for this afternoon? Or a temporary layout until post 20 Feb while inspection works continue?)

Something to bear in mind if you’re heading to west London - the Albert Bridge has just been closed to motor vehicle traffic due to maintenance concerns. Hopefully, they’ll get it up and running soon - the Hammersmith Bridge has been closed since 2019!

Blue Monday - so here’s my bluest print - ‘Starry Night Over Albert Bridge’. Also Dolly Parton’s 80th birthday, so I’m listening to her to chase away the blues!

And here’s a slightly different shade of blue, printed on cream instead of white.

Here’s the final print. Working title ‘Over the Albert Bridge’, but I’m open to suggestions!

London, Themse. Es ist ein schöner Frühsommertag mit blauem Himmel und weißen Wolken. Man sieht ein Flussbett mit ein paar kleineren und größeren Lastkähnen, überspannt von der weiß gestrichenen Albert Bridge, die pittoresk viktorianisch wirkt. Dahinter schimmern dunkelgrün hohe Bäume und ein Hochhaus im Hintergrund. Die Brücke, von der hier nur der auf der Chelsea-Seite gelegene Pfeiler mit seinen Drahtseilen zu sehen ist, ist eine Kettenbrücke aus dem Jahr 1872. Sie verbindet die Stadteile Chelsea und Battersea.

Decorative metalwork on the Albert Bridge in Glasgow. Built in 1868 to a design by Bell and Miller, it's the only substantial wrought-iron arched bridge in Scotland.

Well, you know I’m going to be wheeling this one out on June 21st every year as it’s called - and you may be ahead of me here - Summer Solstice 😁

#AlbertBridge is closed today for some reason, so the King's Road traffic is even more chaotic than usual on a Friday afternoon

Always a welcome sight when returning to London. The Albert Bridge was built in 1873 however it was soon realised the structure was unsound so the famous civil engineer Joseph Bazalgette was brought in to convert it into a suspension bridge.

Boxing Day is steeped in a gentrified Britain of long ago, however, I wish you all a happy holiday season.

Here are more memories from my latest project as I explore the Thames Crossings.

Have the Footballs struck again?

Any other hobby or interest that is allowed to trash city centres in celebration? Just an excuse for anti-social behaviour.....
