Crossing links Berkeley housing scheme with Maidenhead

Knight Architects has completed a 35m-long pedestrian and cycle bridge linking a residential scheme at Taplow in Buckinghamshire with Maidenhead on the other side of the River Thames.

The shallow arch is intended to resemble Brunel’s nearby Maidenhead Bridge. 

The client was Berkeley, the firm behind the Taplow Riverside housing project, where prices range from £475,000 to £1.6m.
