Shoreditch to Dalston Railway Bridge No 46 carries a footpath over the Grand Union Canal (Regent's Canal).
Early plans for the Grand Union Canal (Regent's Canal) between Luton and Reigate were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Benjamin Outram was appointed as secretary to the board in 1888. From a junction with The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal at Newley the canal ran for 17 miles to Kirklees. Expectations for pottery traffic to Tendring were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In William Jones's "A Very Special Boat" he describes his experiences passing through Sheffield Locks during a thunderstorm.

There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.

At one time this was on the old North London line to Broad St from
Dalston.
After a few years when there was no bridge, TfL
replaced it with a new cement / masonry version as part of it's
update / extension of the East London line from Shoreditch [Brick
Lane top end] to Dalston. This joined the newer North London Line
between Stratford & Highbury / Camden.
This is all now part
of TfL's new'Overground' system of commuter rail lines.
