Looking along the deck of the 80-metre long former railway swingbridge which was moved and converted to a footbridge during the redevelopment of Salford Docks as they were transformed into Salford Quays. The bridge now crosses the Huron and Erie Basins, linking Harbour City and MediaCityUK with the residential area around Ontario Basin.

Mariners Canal, Salford Quays
Looking along the length of the Mariners Canal at Salford Quays which was officially opened by the Duke of York on 27 July 1989, having been built to connect the former No 9 and No 8 Docks (now Erie and Ontario Basins). The blue footbridge in the centre of the canal is marked ‘Grain Wharf’. This references the old function of No 9 Dock, where Canadian and American ships would unload their grain cargoes (http://www.visitsalford.info/documents/quays.pdf Visit Salford Quays).
