Welland Canal

Picture, Date Unknown

Ahead of schedule: Engineers are installing 12 braces to shore up a wall in Lock 7 in the Welland Canal so they can drain it to inspect the damage caused by a cave-in Oct. 14. The repair job is almost three days ahead of schedule, but officials remained unsure yesterday when shipping can resume through the canal, which connects Lake Ontario to Lake Erie, bypassing Niagara Falls.

The first commercial ship to use the bypass in the Welland Canal between Port Colborne and Port Robinson was the laker Senneville, which made the trip yesterday as the St. Lawrence Seaway opened for the season. The $188 million by-pass, which took six years to build, eliminates six lift bridges along the canal and several bends in the channel. By-pass trims 30 minutes from the previous 13 to 14-hour trip through the canal. Ice conditions on lakes are light.

Little traffic: there's no movement of goods at this point of the Welland Canal in St. Catharines and shippers' losses are mounting already. A wall collapsed Monday, stalling shipping in the St. Lawrence Seaway in both directions. It may be a week before it is known how long repairs will takes.
