Passing through the bridge

This bridge marks the boundary of the industrial dereliction and the pretty bit of the canal. You will need a BW watermate key to operate the bridge which is raised hydraulically. A crew of 2 on the bridge will speed things up as you have to lower the road barriers by hand.
