The footbridge that links Deansgate-Castlefield tram stop to Deansgate railway station was originally a perspex tube, which had aged and become opaque. It has now been opened out, and this October 2022 view of the Rochdale Canal is one that wasn't previously visible. A short distance behind the camera is the other Castlefield Junction, where the Rochdale and Bridgwater Canals meet. Below is Dukes Lock No.92, the first of fifty-five between here and Summit.
