Description

The project will repaint Blackfriars Bridge (Spans 1, 3 and 4), including the gilding of embellishments where appropriate.

Spans 2 and 5 have been completed under a separate contract. Gateway 5 for the project was approved May 2021. Previous works contract was tendered for Phase 1 which has now ended with the 40% of the total work completed.
