Royal Victoria Dock Bridge, Cable-stayed footbridge in Royal Victoria Dock, London, England.

The suspended timber deck stretches across Royal Victoria Dock, supported by main, secondary, and tertiary masts along its longitudinal center line.

The Royal Victoria Dock Bridge, designed by Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands architects, opened in 1998 to connect Custom House with Silvertown in East London.

The footbridge represents modern engineering solutions in London's Docklands, linking residential areas with the ExCeL exhibition centre and commercial districts.

Two lifts and staircases at each end of the bridge provide access to pedestrians crossing between Custom House and Britannia Village.

The bridge's elevated deck rises high above the water, allowing vessels to pass underneath without requiring mechanical movement of the structure.
