Two "Cycle Superhighways" (numbered 3 and 7) were introduced by the Mayor of London in 2010, with more planned. They are intended as highly visible, well-signposted "corridor" routes into Central London, identifiable by their bright blue tarmac. Here in the East End, Cycle Superhighway 3 uses a shared pavement to provide a two-way cycle lane. The adjacent road is one way only. On the viaduct above, a Docklands Light Railway train is passing.
