• 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

  • I haven’t studied the master planning around Cody Dock, currently no public access around when I was there on Saturday, nor access to Bow creek on Newham side, which would be a continuation of the Leaway South (tow path) toward Canning Town. I suspect that these are destined to becoming public if the bridges map above is to be realised
