WATERLOO BRIDGE
RECONSTRUCTION TO GO AHEAD SHORTLY
The reconstruction of Waterloo Bridge, now that a satisfactory agreement has been reached with regard to the Charing Cross Bridge scheme, will, it is expected, be be- gun with little further delay.
The position at the moment is this: The London County Council are waiting for the promised re- port on the Charing Cross Bridge scheme. This report is to be pre- sented before the end of the month. The Council decided some time ago Waterloo not to proceed with Bridge until the Charing Cross scheme was settled.
