Work at Tideway’s Blackfriars Bridge Foreshore site has progressed well this year and from May 2024 the team is removing the remaining piles from the cofferdam area. The cofferdam is the temporary area of land that was built into the river that allowed construction to take place. The piles we need to remove are on the western riverside edge of the site.
We will be using the vibratory-hammer to extract the piles. Noise and vibration levels will be monitored through out the works.
We aim to complete these pile removal works by the end of July 2024. Further information is available in our information sheet - April 2024.
The team is also installing the artwork installations and working on the landscape and architecture features of the new area of public realm.
Over the coming months, the Tideway teams will be trialling our lighting systems at this site. Phase 1 of testing is scheduled to take place from 6 am Thursday 13 June - midnight Monday 17 June. For more information about these tests, the purpose of these lights and which other sites you can expect to see also trialling these lights, please click here.
