water bridge

This is amazing. I wonder how long this bridge will last but it is a very good idea.

I wonder where the boats go once they have crossed the bridge..... into another canal?
nope.

It's a whole water road.

Have a great day!

How very interesting. I don't think I've ever seen a water bridge before.

They're really very common in the UK. They used to build them back in the Victorian era when canals were the major way of shifting manufactured goods. Some of them are still in regular use today.
