APPROVED. Possibly even pedal-powered!
I want one on Dartford Creek too.
There seems to be no fixed bar in the flood barrier there, so it would be
more expensive. And I don't think there are any ships there either, making
it a bit pointless. I don't think a hand-wound chain ferry like the one on
Trowbridge Island, Kingston would work well on a tidal creek. So a
standard bridge would probably be cheaper.
