Existing network, currently unavailable because of private property.
They may become available if the owners sell their rights.
Although needing improvements, they may be considered resources, as their paths may be reused.
Fixed connections Invarianti
1_ Private property interruptions.
Of the three road bridges that cross the railroad, two of them are property of the Ford Stamping Plant.
Currently they can not be accessed.
2_ Cequers Lane station interruption.
Following an urban decision made during the 2006 district plan, Cequers Lane has been divided in two separate trunks by the railroad.
This decision has been made to effectively separate the southern part of Dagenham, industrial, and the northern part,
These roads have been recently redeveloped to provide good separation between pedestrian, cycling and car carriageways. Parking areas have thoroughly been dimensioned and placed.
The proposal take into account these
resources and aims to revitalize the street life.
Separated carriageways cycling and pedestrian
Suitable crossings
