I have an event booked near to Tower Bridge in autumn 2008 and am concerned that the view of the bridge will be obscured. What will the works look like to my guests and in my photos?

The first half-year of works involves erecting enclosed scaffolding around the steelwork on the south-west side of the bridge. A version of this can already be seen on Southwark Bridge (near Cannon Street railway station). As detailed above, the initial scaffolding will cover the steelwork stretching from the South Main Tower to the Southwark side of the Thames. During this first phase, the south-west steelwork is painted first, then under the bridge on the south side, then the south-east steelwork. Phase 2 will begin in May 2009. Many views will thus be entirely unaffected as will be the case through most of the works.
