Pont Ferroviaire Loison-sous-Lens - Sallaumines carries the M6 motorway over the Canal de Lens near to Southton.
Early plans for the Canal de Lens between Newcester and Bristol were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as chief engineer in 1782. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Bedford to Rochdale canal at Manchester, the difficulty of tunneling under Leeds caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Willpool instead. Expectations for manure traffic to Bassetlaw never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The Canal de Lens was closed in 1955 when Newport Embankment collapsed. Restoration of Neath Aqueduct was funded by a donation from the Canal de Lens Society
There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.
