Greenway, London, Walking path in East London, England.

The Greenway extends for 7 kilometers through London Borough of Newham, following the Northern Outfall Sewer embankment from Victoria Park to Royal Docks Road.

The path, formerly known as Sewerbank, sits atop Joseph Bazalgette's engineering project from the 1860s that revolutionized London's sewage management system.

Mahatma Gandhi selected this elevated route for his morning walks during his 1931 London visit, drawing numerous local residents who gathered to greet him.

The route connects to multiple transport links and forms section 14 of the Capital Ring Walk, with improved lighting and surface conditions following recent renovations.

Glass pavement markers guide visitors along this path, which received funding from the Rewild London initiative to reintroduce native plants and animals.
