       这是由Thomas Heatherwick最近公布的英国伦敦花园大桥设计方案。该项目是一座平顶式花园大桥,横跨泰晤士河,按计划将于2017完工,届时该桥将会成为伦敦市的一个新的水上绿色公园。该大桥长367米,连通Temple站和泰晤士河南岸。桥上将种满英国本土树木、灌木和伏地植物。步行者们可以悠闲的享受在这座美丽的绿色大桥上的时光,他们可以在林荫路下漫步,在长椅上放松,在桥上嬉戏。
       该项目总监表示,虽然这座大桥的设计想法很简单,但是工程部分却非常难以实现,这需要多方工作室的共同合作,以确保项目设计和工程施工能够完美契合。该项目的信托基金已经建立,将于2014年举办筹款活动。设计团队今日向公众发布设计图稿,进行公开征询公众意见。

       A garden-topped bridge designed by Thomas Heatherwick could span the River Thames by 2017, creating a new green park for London. The project’s engineering consultants at Arup just unveiled exciting new images of the design as the Garden Bridge Trust begins public consultation, supported by Transport for London (TfL).
       The 367-meter bridge features two fluted pillars that support a split promenade between Temple Station and Southbank. Walkers will be able to enjoy a beautiful green environment made up of indigenous trees, shrubs and smaller plant species, stroll under the leaves and relax on benches next to the path.
       Tristram Carfrae, Project Director at Arup said of the project: “The idea is simple; we’re trying to create a bridge that looks beautiful, is durable, is efficient to construct and will support a garden spanning the River Thames. This is not an easy feat and we’re working closely with Heatherwick Studio to ensure that the design and engineering work seamlessly together to create an ingenious result.”
       The Garden Bridge Trust has been created to drive the project forward and organize fundraising in advance of a planning application in 2014. Heatherwick Studio is famous for its redesign of London’s Routemaster buses, and it worked with actor-turned-campaigner Joanna Lumley and landscape designer Dan Pearson to respond to Transport for London’s (TfL) tender for proposals to improve pedestrian links across the river.
