Default A13 - Canning Town (new) Flyover virtually complete!

Open today, possibly been so for a couple of days. Eastbound traffic
only, though delays as far as Prince Regent Lane.

Westbound traffic diverted onto former eastbound carriageway of
original flyover, former westbound closed, possibly to be demolished
soon.

The new eastbound flyover looks like it'is due to open soon -
'September' according to TfL Street Management. It looks structurally
intact, with streetlights and most lane-markings in place. Two lanes
only.

I think the old one will be replaced (by a twin lane westbound
flyover), given that the project is due to finish next June. The link
to the Aspen Way tunnel is due open in November.

Best seen from the top of a 241 bus (Canning Town to Stratford) - but
allow plenty of time for delays on the A13 eastbound towards the
turn-off for Plaistow!
