Saleyards Creek : ウィキペディア英語版 | Saleyards Creek Saleyards Creek (also known as Saleyard Creek) is a canalised urban stream, acting as a stormwater channel, located in Sydney, Australia. ==Description== Saleyards Creek has its source in the Rookwood Cemetery〔(Powells Creek Landscape Design Framework, Volume 2. )〕 beside the suburb of Strathfield, and flows generally northward through the suburb of Homebush.〔(Stephen Ambrose, Vertebrate Fauna Study for the Strathfield LGA, April 2009. )〕 Saleyards Creek is now lined with concrete banks for its entire length,〔 although the portions of the creek flowing through Airey Park and beside Bressington Park〔(Strathfield Council web site: photograph. )〕 also have trees planted alongside. Since its water is largely provided by rainfall in the Sydney area, flows are reduced to little more than a trickle during dry weather.〔 Saleyards Creek flows through a man-made tunnel under Paddy's Markets Flemington.〔 Emerging into daylight, it continues under Parramatta Road and the M4 Western Motorway, finally flowing into Powells Creek at Bressington Park in Homebush.〔 When driving westbound on the M4 Western Motorway it is possible to see a sign showing where Saleyards Creek flows under the motorway, not far east of Homebush Bay Drive.
