Evening all,

Question largely as in title!

The DLR extension to Dagenham Dock, now shelved AIUI, involves building a
rail bridge across Barking Creek, aka the River Roding, right at the creek
mouth, the line passing shorewards of the sewage works at Beckton.


Seems to have been a tunnel AFAICT from this TfL web page, Tom:

"The proposed route leaves the existing network at Gallions reach station
before running around the south of the DLR depot. The route then descends
into tunnel and after travelling under the south west corner of the Thames
Water site continues under the Thames foreshore. The alignent then emerges
to the east of the River Roding and rises up onto viaduct."
