Summary

| Description |
The Twelve Mile Creek in St. Catharines, Ontario was part of the first two versions of the Welland Canal. This waterway was created as an easier way for boats (ships?) to travel from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie (and back if they survived) rather than attempt to sail up and over Niagara Falls. Standing at the edge of the Twelve Mile Creek, it is challenging to imagine the boats in the water, fitting under the Highway 406 bridge. On the other hand, this bridge was built long after the canal was rerouted to the east side of St. Catharines. Today's ships need a much wider and deeper channel than that provided by the Twelve Mile Creek, as well as much taller clearance than provided under this award winning bridge. |
