There is a hydraulic power pack mounted on the east abutment for
the east side swing bridge locking pin, gates and bridge and a power pack on the
west abutment for the west side swing bridge locking pin and gates. Control of
the system is from an existing two-storey building located on the west quay
wall.
The swing bridges are approximately 11m long with a nominal
central pivot point on one side. The bridges are designed to swing through
approximately 90 degrees to provide a clear opening of 12.5m to match the clear
width of the lock.
There is a special 1.4m high parapet suitable for use by
pedestrians and cyclists.
