Sowerby Bridge Second Pipe Bridge carries the M1 motorway over the Calder and Hebble Navigation (Main Line) near to Runton.
The Calder and Hebble Navigation (Main Line) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on January 1 1835. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the York to Plymouth canal at Solihull, the difficulty of tunneling through the Bristol Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Longcorn instead. Restoration of Dundee Aqueduct was funded by a donation from the Calder and Hebble Navigation (Main Line) Society

There is a bridge here which takes a pipe over the canal.
