The 63-metre steel bowstring arch bridge at Aisla Wharf will connect Tower Hamlets and Newham, enhancing accessibility to popular spots like the Olympic Park and nightclub FOLD.
The bridge will be exclusively for pedestrians and cyclists, aligning with efforts to reduce car traffic and promote healthier lifestyles in the area.
Concerns have been raised about the financial burden of maintaining the bridge, with uncertainties about which borough will be responsible.
Tower Hamlets council approved the bridge plans, with construction expected to commence within the next three years, pending Newham's approval later in the year.
