There will also still be a water channel between the two docks on either side, though why that is necessary when both of the other docks seem to have direct access to the river, I do not know. (It is 'a historic water course' according to the line under the first graphic on https://sportsvenuebusiness.com/index.php/2019/01/09/everton-provides-stadium-project-update/ )
It's an aesthetic feature not only for the stadium, but surroundin restaurants and bars that will be built too.
It adds a bit of ambition to the project.
