How high is the Sheppey Crossing?

[edit]

Contradicting articles - 35m vs 20m for the height of Sheppey Crossing

Isle of Sheppey article says:

"The Sheppey crossing ... rises to a height of 20 m above The Swale"

This article says:

"The Sheppey Crossing ... crosses The Swale at a height of 35m"

One is nearly double the other.

Both are uncited anyone know which is correct and/or cite source. Carlwev (talk) 11:04, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BBC reference says 35m. Highways agency reference says 29m. I'm inclined to favour the latter as being a more 'primary' source. Murray Langton (talk) 13:34, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This Highways Agency post-build review says 35m http://www.highways.gov.uk/roads/documents/POPE___A249_Iwade_Queenborough_OYA_report__final.pdf. Good enough for me. danno 21:52, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
