Planned new bridge over River Trent 'pushing forward' with renewed calls for another

Plans for a new bridge over the River Trent are 'pushing forward' according to Nottingham City Council. It comes after the city council agreed costs with landowners so proposals can progress for the new pedestrian and cycle bridge across the River Trent, which would connect Lady Bay to the vast £100m Trent Basin waterside housing estate near Colwick.

The details and costs of this decision have been restricted. But it comes after more than £9m in Government funding was secured, which is expected to cover the entirety of the project.

If all goes to plan, it is hoped the bridge will open in 2023. A full planning application is set to be submitted at the start of next year.
