Looking south through the older Bridge 4A. This bridge, carrying the Nottingham bound carriageway of Radford Road over the canal, is high enough to allow craft to pass underneath. That is if there wasn't a large sewerage pipe crossing just above water level. A major obstacle to the reopening of the canal is Bridge 4 which is behind the viewpoint. This was constructed during the dual-ling of Radcliffe Road with scant regard for future use of the waterway. This is the main reason why a feasibility study to look into alternative routes to the River Trent was carried out in 2009.
