Liverpool Canal Link Route 2 (before work began)

Part Two of the route of the new canal link. (Back to Part One.)

Princes Half Tide Dock
The two waterloo Docks connect to Princes Half Tide Dock. This is being partially infilled to reduce its depth. The Liver Building is seen in the distance.

Princes Dock
The footbridge across Princes Dock. This fixed bridge does not have enough navigable height beneath it, so will need to be replaced, either with a movable bridge or one with more clearance below.
