Looking from the Asda/Walmart store, across the Ashton Canal, towards the Manchester Velopark.

The Velopark complex, which incorporates the Velodrome, is at Sportcity in East Manchester. The complex is the home of the cycling's national federation British Cycling and the team that was so successful at the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games (LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) Manchester Evening News).

The bridge carries the slogan:
