The Worcester and Birmingham Canal connected the Black Country to the sea by providing a link to the River Severn, opening trade routes to the world. The canal bustled with barges carrying freight in and out night and day. Nowadays tourist boats keep the canals busy. The route is also well renowned with walkers. The route is 30 miles long (recommended over two days) and has a total of 58 locks including the 30 Tardebigge Locks, one of the largest lock flights in Europe.
