DescriptionThe site for a new bridge - geograph.org.uk - 609768.jpg
English: The site for a new bridge At first sight this looks like just an ordinary shot of the TEA building on Shoreditch High Street. However the view here will be radically changed in just a few weeks, for a new railway bridge will cross right over the field of view. It will be part of the £900M East London Railway extension, which will connect the East London Line, via a new station at Shoreditch, (it will be on the right of this picture), to the presently disused viaduct alignment which until 1986 served Broad Street station, so that 'Overground' trains will be able to run through between New Cross or New Cross Gate and Dalston Junction, (later to Highbury & Islington). This is the most important local rail project in London snce the completion of the Jubilee Line Extension, and should be completed by the middle of 2010.
