Alney Island precedents

 

Cosmeston Lakes, Penarth, South Wales

To improve access around Alney Island, I am working with the idea of boardwalks over the areas prone to flooding. I think this has great potential to brig users to the site year-round and create a unique space which will draw people in. These boardwalks can lead to platforms which might be areas to meet or observe the local wildlife.
