Salford Junction (grid reference SP095901) is the canal junction of the Grand Union and Tame Valley Canals with the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal. It is in the north of the administrative city of Birmingham, England and historically marked a tripoint between two divisions of Aston to the south and Erdington to the north. It is directly east of most of the Gravelly Hill Interchange (Spaghetti Junction). With Aston and Bordesley Junctions it forms a circuit, at the heart of Birmingham's thirty-five miles of canals.

  • Salford Junction ist der Treffpunkt dreier Kanäle bei Birmingham, England. Durch ein System von Schleusen sind an dieser Stelle der Grand Union Canal, der und der seit 1844 miteinander verbunden. Der Name Salford beruht dabei auf dem angelsächsischen Wort Shrafford, was „Furt bei den Höhlen“ bedeutet, denn außerdem fließt der River Tame in diesem Bereich neben den Kanälen. Mit Höhlen sind Höhlen im angrenzenden Copeley Hill gemeint. Die Höhlen wurden beim Bau des Autobahnkreuzes Gravelly Hill Interchange der Autobahn M6 zerstört und die Salford Bridge, die sich seit spätestens 1290 hier befand, abgerissen. Das Kanalkreuzungssystem liegt seitdem unter der aufgeständerten Autobahn. (de)
