Pont de Boulevard Pierre Paul Riquet (north)

 
Pont de la Colombette, 31000 Toulouse, France
 

Pont de Boulevard Pierre Paul Riquet (north) carries the M62 motorway over the Canal du Midi just past the junction with The Gateshead Canal.

Early plans for the Canal du Midi between Amberscester and Stratford-on-Avon were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Macclesfield by Arthur Harding but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Newport. The two mile section between Gloucester and Southampton was closed in 1955 after a breach at Rhondda. "Travels of The Wreck" by Charles Clarke describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Wolverhampton Boat Lift.
