GENERAL
consists of six locks and five episodes of the channel with a total length less than 25 kilometers. Its length is not the most important in all this, because far more important is that it allows individuals to overcome the hill. Ridge between the Oder and Vistula river basins, linking Brda River, which flows into the Vistula River Notecią, which flows into the Warta and Noteć. Ideal is shown in the diagram below, which I recently noticed you borrowed from me wikipedia, but let it there ....
Variations ships, barges, yachts and other boats can climb through śluzom.
Lock is one building, which is equipped with two sealed compartments, none of them do not allow water to flow. This allows the water level between these compartments change, and even with water level above or below the lock.
drew an imperfect scheme that may help you understand the operation of the sluice. When the lock is full, the water level inside the lock is the same as the water level above the lock. You can then easily open the top sluice gates and let in to her ship. Then the upper gates are closed and will add is released until its level inside the lock is aligned with the water level below the locks. You can then easily open the doors and let lower prześluzowany ship analogy lockage runs in the opposite direction.
Four such locks overthrow ships "climb the 22 meters above the levels of the Brda River, and the next two, to leave by 6 feet to the level of the river Noteć. It is for this, and not for any other reason we may call the Bydgoszcz Canal phenomenal achievement eighteenth-century thought technical support.
BYDGOSKI CHANNEL IN THE INLAND ROAD
waterways writing I'm thinking of waterways available for cargo ships. In Poland, of course, refers to past time, but after some of them managed to swim even when operated in our country inland waterway transport.
Outside our country, all inland waterways are healthy and are growing rather than curl. From what I saw last year, despite the global crisis on the frequency of traffic on them is quite large.
BYDGOSKI CHANNEL - A LITTLE HISTORY
kind of such a channel is nothing special, so why the construction was such an important event? Why was a boost for the region? Why influenced the development of industry in Bydgoszcz and caused the population has increased 70-fold mains?
Well, we can not forget that at the time of construction of the canal there was no other alternative transport. There was still time for railways and transport of goods on a large scale was possible only by using ships or inland. Reading texts written in those distant times, we can guess in what state were when the roads over which drove wagons drawn by animals.
Their narrow, wooden wheels were covered with sheet metal and mounted to the car initially, without any springs. General and the epidemic was the lack of bridges, which either have not yet been built or were destroyed during the numerous wars. Very often the delivery men carrying loads exceeding the cars had to use the river fords. When you imagine the times in which took place The construction of the canal, once we understand better the reasons for which Frederick II, attach to the construction of such great importance. Understand why it did not spare funds to build the canal and maintain its good sailing conditions. Sparsely populated East Prussia became a means of Cannel Bydgoskiemu granary overpopulated and eternally hungry Berlin.
Since the opening of the channel in the 70 - the eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century when the railway arrived and the Prussians began to have an alternative in the transport passed 70 years. We must be aware that a large part these seventy years attributable to the turbulent period of the Napoleonic wars, when the British navy blocked European seaports. Carriage of goods by sea at that time was very difficult and we may suppose that even some of the merchants of Danzig used when the channel Bydgoszcz, exporting their goods. Inland waterway through Bydgoszcz was then doubly priceless. Perhaps also used it logistically Napoleon Bonaparte, although not preserved on this issue any documents in Polish.
BYDGOSKI CHANNEL - TODAY
After cutting Pomerania Channel from the German state has lost its meaning. For the Polish economy has never had much value, and is currently difficult to swim to Poland, from the Oder River are even tourist boats. But this is not due to poor shipping conditions on the Bydgoszcz Canal. Anyone who wants to sail from the west to the Canal has 14 locks to overcome Noteci, which is quite difficult, because the river flowing all the time usypuje sand in the channels access to these locks, and none of these channels are not deepened.
Bydgoszcz Canal can be seen from
kayak. or from one ship Bydgoszcz Water Tram - old or new vessel tug solar system. After the Bydgoszcz Canal, and in part of the river Noteć often floats "the Short" ship of the School in the Inland Nakło.
