Studio John Bridge Ltd. Architecture

04/06/2026

Monday marked our 12th year as an architectural practice, and today celebrated with our team, and friends at The Artistry House, sharing stories, reflecting on projects, and looking ahead to what’s next.

Over the last 12 years, one thing has remained constant: great projects are built on great relationships. We are only ever as good as the people we work with our clients, consultants, contractors, collaborators, and team members who help bring ideas to life.

Our passion has always been helping clients unlock the full potential of their projects. Whether it’s a single home, a commercial space, a fabrication facility, or a large mixed-use development, we love pushing boundaries, solving challenges, and creating designs that add genuine value.

We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, but even more excited about what’s ahead. If you’re planning a project and looking for a team that combines creativity, technical expertise, and a collaborative approach, we’d love to hear from you.

What’s the project you’re most excited about this year? Let us know in the comments.

Here’s to the next chapter! and to turning more ambitious ideas into reality.

Further detail information on a couple of hidden nuggets on the Bridge! JB

Two large free-standing metal structures sit on the Penwortham side of the river. We tracked down what they are for.

I need to honour and congratulate him on these fantastic photos of our new Tram Bridge! I have seen some great photos this last week since the inaugural opening on the 22nd May 2026! These are up there in my top 10!

We are overwhelmed with the love for the Bridge! So proud of Preston City Council and Lancashire County Council, and to be part of it:.. has been fantastic! Eric Wright Group delivered here!

All the hard work to inspire for a new bridge, the lobbying by the Friends of the Old Tram Road Bridge, the schools who took part in the competition, the business community who pulled together to award them, and to all the unsung heroes in my design team, the Engineers, the Comms/PR, Media, Photographers and Videograohers! the Admin qnd Accounts… the politicians (albeit I’m A-Political) all helped make it so!

Here here to Preston!

Preston’s iconic Tram Bridge crossing has officially reopened after 7 years of closure - and we’re proud to share that the new bridge was designed by University of Lancashire alumnus John Bridge Studio John Bridge Ltd. Architecture, who studied BSc (Hons) Architectural Technology.

It’s fantastic to see one of our graduates helping shape Preston’s landscape and creating something that will benefit the community for years to come! 👏

It’s quite amazing really, how much it means to so many people in so many ways. We all felt it, but only yesterday it hit home. Seeing peoples reactions and sharing stories about how they met up with loved ones, travelled too and fro to work, college, for sports and exercise. So proud of our City for making this happen. Going local for the professionals and Contractors (include myself and my team) through to including local groups. We all needed this boost, and may it continue and inspire! Act as a catalyst for more regeneration and helping local businesses thrive. Harris Institute next! JB

All the highlights from a great day for Preston and South Ribble - and why the structure is "so important" to both places. Full story in the comments.👇
