B&B Industrial Dismantling Ltd recently completed the controlled demolition and dismantling of Stanhope Road Bridge in London.
Regenology were there on the day that the bridge came down, to capture the works using our short term time-lapse, filming and drone services. You can see the final film below.
B&B was founded in 1984 and has remained a family based company since then, providing a personal service, delivered to a high standard. They specialise in demolition and dismantling of structures in a multitude of industries ranging from power generation to domestic housing. It was a joy to watch them work, and see how the carefully managed operation to remove the 150 year old bridge was completed.
The demolition was part of a major project to replace the 150-year-old Stanhope Road bridge. The Stanhope road bridge is part of Parkland Walk, a 4.5m cycle and pedestrian route connecting Finsbury Park and Muswell Hill, and the capital’s longest local nature reserve. It required replacing to guarantee a 120-year lifespan.
Following co-production exercise with support from local young people, the best design option for the new Stanhope road bridge was chosen. This design aims to to complement the natural surroundings of the Parkland Walk, ensuring the bridge integrates with the natural environment. The ecological benefits to the immediate area include a biodiversity uplift of 13 per cent, and the council will plant 10 news trees in local streets to replace any lost as part of the project.
We hope you enjoy the film of the demolition, and look forward to working with B&B again in the future.
