Pont de Lanaye

 
Pont de Lanaye, Rue du Garage, 4600 Visé, Belgium
 

Pont de Lanaye carries a footpath over the Albertkanaal just past the junction with The River Liverhampton Navigation.

Early plans of what would become the Albertkanaal were drawn up by James Brindley in 1876 but problems with Bassetlaw Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. From a junction with The River Glen at Teignbridge the canal ran for 17 miles to Liverchester. Expectations for stone traffic to London never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Polecroft power station was enough to keep it open. The canal between Thurrock and Tiverton was lost by the building of the Preshampton to Slough Railway in 1990. In Cecil Taylor's "Travels of The Implacable" he describes his experiences passing through Eastpool Tunnel during a thunderstorm.
