In June this year, the 40km river course of Tongzhou section of the North Canal will be completed Travel? be open to navigation. At present, the comprehensive treatment project of Tongzhou section of the North Canal is under accelerated construction, and service facilities such as slow-moving roads, rest areas and scenic spots will also be built along the coast. The previous riverbank roads and river patrol roads will be used to build a slow-moving system integrating cycling, walking and other functions, so that tourists can enjoy themselves. This was learned from the "Two Sessions" of Tongzhou District on January 14.

In order to enable ships to overcome the water level difference between upstream and downstream caused by the river barrage, Gangtang Yulin Zhuang and Yangwa ship locks. According to the design scheme, about 27000 cubic meters of concrete and 1500 tons of cement will be used for the construction of Gantang Shiplock alone. Before the construction, thousands of gravel piles will be driven in the foundation pit to improve the bearing capacity of the foundation.

"The three locks are double line locks, and each lock is like two cuboids without a cover." Song Guoyu, the relevant person in charge, described to the reporter the role of the lock after the navigation: taking the situation of the ship traveling from upstream to downstream as an example, when it comes to the north gate, the ship lock control equipment will automatically inject water into the lock chamber, so that the lock chamber water level line is consistent with the upstream water level line, Then open the north gate, let the ship enter the lock chamber and close the north gate; Then, the control equipment will drain water for the gate chamber. After the gate chamber water level line is consistent with the downstream water level line, the south gate will be opened to allow the ship to enter the downstream river smoothly. The whole process will not exceed 14 minutes. In order to make it easier for ships to enter the ship lock, the construction company has also improved the river corner in front of the north gate, which has been changed from nearly 90 degrees to about 50 degrees, making passengers on board more comfortable.

Beijing The relevant person in charge of the Shibei Canal Management Office said that in the future, the Tongzhou section of the North Canal will focus on ecological culture and tourism, highlight the long history and culture of the canal, and strive to create a model ecological culture and tourism landscape in Beijing. It is understood that the navigation project of the North Canal is an important part of the coordinated development of the water affairs of the Beijing Tianjin Hebei Canal. When it is opened to navigation, it will not only become a model for the cooperation of the three cities in managing the Grand Canal, but also create a new pattern of tourism navigation development, connecting the millennium culture of the canal in Beijing Tianjin Hebei.
