The first planning documents have been put forward for the new River Trent bridge.
A screening request, which precedes a full application being submitted to Nottingham City Council and Rushcliffe Borough Council, has been put in for the bridge which will connect Lady Bay to the vast £100m Trent Basin waterside housing estate near Colwick.
If the plans pass this initial Environment Impact Assessment two identical planning applications will soon be submitted to each authority to obtain consent for the bridge, connecting ramps and associated landscaping, in February 2022.
