Not a hard one I guess for some but can somebody remind me of the location where a canal crosses over a motorway/dual carriageway?? ISTR boating over it once but can't recall the location now. North circular aqueduct near Alperton on Grand Union. Another near Wolverton /Milton Keynes on GU.

bit too easy Jim,Wigan pier. And afaik there's only one sliding railway bridge, further clue for that, next to a tide lock. The only one I know of is at Vazon on the S&K.
