Rochdale Canal Bridge#65b (Tunnel under the M62)
When the M62 was constructed, the canal was diverted along a new channel, few yards to the east, and this former culvert was made into a tunnel. The towpath now runs on a floating pontoon in the tunnel under the M62 motorway.
The tunnel is just wide enough to allow a narrow boat to pass through with the pontoon in place (http://www.penninewaterways.co.uk/rochdale/rc8b.htm photo). If a wide beam boat arranges to pass through, the pontoon is moved to the layby behind the tunnel (to the north - see Image]) and towpath users need to make quite a long diversion!.

This is about 600 metres south of Castleton and just to the north of lock 53. The fabricated towpath is a relatively recent introduction.

Motorway Culvert Bridge [No 65B], Rochdale Canal
A diversion for the restored canal. The floating towpath was designed to move out of the way [with 24 hours notice] if a boat wider than a narrowboat wants to pass through.

M62 crossing the Rochdale Canal
Here we are looking south from just south of Castleton. A towpath wasn't provided as part of the regeneration works so pedestrians and cyclists have to make a detour via Manchester Road and Earl Street.
