The River Mersey joins the Manchester Ship Canal to facilitate navigation and transport, providing access for larger vessels to the inland city of Manchester. The canal was constructed to bypass the limitations of the river's natural course and tidal influences. After entering the canal, the river continues its flow, eventually leaving the canal as it returns to its natural route towards the Irish Sea. This interaction allows for a more efficient movement of goods while maintaining the river's ecological function.
