Love the rolling bridge but can't work out why? I can't imagine it's purpose

everything needs a purpose. This bridge provides level access for foot passengers and cyclists. When inverted it allows clear access for water vessels between Cody Dock / Lea River without height restriction.

Not contributing factor methinks, but tidal range is also significant at entry/exit

Could people not just walk round the side of where engaged bridge is? A few yards if that
