We've been conned!It would have been nice to have a suspension bridge, as originally shown, but what's happened to the glass atrium ? It has changed from a nice wide feature to something resembling a carport roof.

It is a lot narrower isn't it Laurie61?? Rather than being spacious in there, it will feel quite cramped. Wrexham's fairly recent modern shopping complex is nice and wide, with fountains and good use of coloured building materials which is appealing to look at.
Not in Stafford though.

It was a cable-stayed bridge - stylish, but more expensive than a generic thing.
We should have kept the old Bailey Bridge, at least that had some interest behind it.

The Bailey Bridge was being crossed by vehicles 6 hours after the erection commenced......

What was proposed.
What has actually happened.
..although, there's still a bit of finishing off to do..
That bridge doesn't look very safe to me. I have a bit of a phobia about bridges and I hate the one at The Bull Ring that you cross from the car park to Selfridges.

Much more disturbing bridges are available.

Shreik! That looks terrifying!
I don't even like driving over a large bridge.
I won't go back here for my hols because I didn't like the bridge.

How is acceptable to sell the idea to the council and the people of Stafford with an artists impression then build something different?
Well its near enough guv'nor, and its only Stafford after all.
