Rotherhithe crossing information


Canary Wharf seen from Rotherhithe. The proposed crossing would provide a link between Rotherhithe on the south side of the Thames and Canary Wharf on the north.

The Rotherhithe crossing is a proposed route for pedestrians and cyclists across the River Thames in London, England between Rotherhithe and Canary Wharf.

A bridge was first proposed at this location by Sustrans in 2008.[1] The construction contract was awarded to Atkins in 2018 and a vertical lift bridge design was selected in 2019. The project was paused in June of that year for budgetary reasons,[2] Transport for London describing the construction of an opening bridge at the site as "complex" and unaffordable at that time.[3] In July 2019 TFL made the decision to no longer progress a walking and cycling bridge between Rotherhithe and Canary Wharf due to costs and affordability, TfL has been carrying out further work to develop a more affordable proposal for a ferry crossing.[4]
