Tame Valley Canal
The Tame Valley Canal runs from Ocker Hill near Tipton from the Walsall Canal to Salford Junction underneath Spaghetti Junction where the canal meets with the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal and Grand Union Canal Birmingham. The Canal leaves the Walsall Canal at Tame Valley Junction, Ocker Hill where it takes a straight flat path to the South of Wednesbury making its way to Rushall Junction where it meets with the Rushall Canal. This Junction is next to where the M6 Motorway and M5 Motorway join. The Canal continues then through a valley with more straight flat sections to Perry Barr Locks and then on around Perry Barr and Witton to Salford Junction where the canal terminates at the Birmingham and Fazeley and Grand Union Canal.
