Need to be more bridges or underpasses to the East of London rather than central

Is this one being held up in the middle by helium balloons? If so I vote for it.

I think you'll find it's a combination of skyhooks AND helium balloons - helium balloons on their own wouldn't have the required lift
Now run along and get me a long weight, some striped paint and a foremans clout

Sorry, just got back. The guy in supplies left me standing around for ages while he looked for the long weight. No striped paint either i'm afraid, just tartan - shall I go back and get that instead?

Update:
Location chosen for new footbridge across the ThamesA new pedestrian and cyclist bridge across the Thames is set to go ahead after a short-list of locations was narrowed down to the final winner.
A preferred location has been identified for a new Thames bridge linking Nine Elms and Pimlico by the bridge design team, appointed by Wandsworth Council.
Whilst all three shortlisted locations were deemed to be viable, the recommended location has been seen as the best opportunity to create links between the Vauxhall Nine Elms Battersea (VNEB) Opportunity Area with local neighbourhoods on the north side of the river.
The location is a bit of a surprise, as the favoured placement had been opposite the new US Embassy building, as analysis by TfL in 2013 found that location to be likely to be the best in terms of people using the bridge.
That particular location was however also opposed by a lot of people living on the north side of the river.
The current design, which hasn’t been finalised, is for a couple of corkscrew spirals at either end leading up to the bridge across the river.
Funding for the bridge is also still to be raised, and although £26 million has been secured from the developers putting up all those towers in Nine Elms, the estimated cost for the bridge to be built is somewhere in the region of £240 million, leaving a sizeable shortfall to be filled.
