The one kilometre Queen Elizabeth II Canal reconnects the Forth & Clyde Canal back to its birthplace in Grangemouth some 250 years after it was built. The QEII Canal is the final piece of the Millennium Link – an £83.5 million project that restored the nation’s inland waterways to a navigable state for the first time in more than 50 years. https://www.scottishcanals.co.uk/news/queen-elizabeth-ii-canal-to-receive-crowning-glory/
