Vermont Bridge Solution Prompts Aesthetic Riprap Plan
Vermont state highway engineers praise an inventive rock riprap scheme along a 130 foot riverbank near Highgate to stabilize subsurface but also create a pleasing paved stone appearance. Old slab stones repurposed from Isle La Motte quarry form a checkerboard across both river banks, reducing erosion and protecting the channel.

Renewal Plan Offered for the Heart of London
The Whitehall Report urged cleaning Parliament Square of traffic and creating a riverfront precinct with gardens and modern ministries. Sir Leslie Martin proposed a conference center and a pedestrian friendly complex, preserving the Abbey and Parliament while adding a roof view area and visitor facilities. A tunnel road option could push traffic away from the square, freeing eight acres for new development.
