Holliday Street Aqueduct
The Holiday Street aqueduct is a Grade II listed aqueduct at the start of the Worcester and Birmingham Canal in central Birmingham, England.
Built in 1870 the cast iron structure carries the canal and a wide access road originally leading from Bridge Street to Worcester Wharf (now housing) over Holliday Street very close to the Worcester Bar stop lock in Gas Street Basin.
Immediately to the south of Holliday Street the Cross-City Line (originally the Birmingham West Suburban Railway) rail line runs in a tunnel parallel to Holliday Street. A short distance south of that is the disused rail tunnel of the original line which terminated at Central Goods railway station (the previous terminus of the Birmingham West Suburban Railway). Immediately south of the disused rail tunnel the canal turns sharply between The Mailbox and The Cube through ninety degrees to run parallel to the rail tunnels.
==Water leak in 2015==
In February 2015 water was found to be leaking into the disused rail tunnel and the canal was drained between two temporary dams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Canal at Gas Street in Birmingham to be drained due to leak )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Draining of canal at Gas Street in Birmingham delayed )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Gas Street Basin fish rescue delayed by leaking canal dams )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Fish rescued from leaking Birmingham canal )〕 The leak was traced to a hole in the canal bed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gas Street Basin leak 'caused by hole in canal bed' )〕
