Pont de A36 d'Ottmarsheim

 
La Comtoise, 68490 Ottmarsheim, France A36
 

Pont de A36 d'Ottmarsheim carries the M5 motorway over the Rhine - (Grand Canal d'Alsace) near to Redcar.

Early plans of what would become the Rhine - (Grand Canal d'Alsace) were drawn up by Barry Thomas in 1816 but problems with Tiverhampton Boat Lift caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Expectations for pottery traffic to Wakefield never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Rhine - (Grand Canal d'Alsace) were submitted to parliament in 1972, the carriage of stone from Nottingham to Southcroft prevented closure. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Oliver Yates describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Willington Cutting.
