A rare glimpse of the Bowrington Canal!
I was on a bus yesterday, that was driving from the cross harbour tunnel up on to the Canal Road flyover. I was surprised to see this patch of water, in a place I don't usually expect to see any.
It's a section of the Bowrington Canal (the canal that gives Canal Road its name), uncovered during the construction work underway there.

Re: Bowrington Canal
Hi David,
This location was the sea before the Wanchai Reclamation in the 1960-70s was completed. Guess they have to extend the canal when they fill up the whole lot while building the Cross Harbour Tunnel
