Talk  Richmond  c-­‐space  conversa4on  (a  conversa+on  shared  by  Mark  W  on  the  Talk  Richmond  website)  

Two  members  of  the  Richmond  borough  (Richard  Woolf  and  Mark  Wing)  first  shared  the  idea  for  Radnor  Bridge  at  the  Barefoot  Consulta4on  in  2010.  This  was  followed  up  by  similar  shares  during  the  All  in  One  Village  mee4ngs.  Mark  Wing  then  presented  a  white  paper  on  the  Radnor  Bridge  idea  at  Footbridge  2014  en4tled  'Genesis  of  a  Footbridge  from  a  community  perspec4ve’  (available  online).    

The  aim  is  to  connect  Twickenham  and  Ham  via  a  cycle  and  pedestrian  bridge  located  at  Radnor  Gardens.  The  benefits  will  be,  the  improved  access  to  open  land  for  recrea4onal  purposes,  the  improved  cycling  access  across  the  borough  (thus  reducing  traffic),  as  well  as  the  obvious  socio  and  economic  advantages  found  when  connec4ng  two  communi4es.    

The  bridge  will  be  located  to  provide  the  op4mum  strategic  link  between  two  halves  of  a  borough  separated  by  water  and  in  this  way  will  create  an  obvious  legacy  for  the  enjoyment  of  future  genera4ons.    

The  4me  to  act  is  now  !!
