Willow Springs Road Bridge
Willow Springs Road, Willow Springs, IL 60480, United States of America
Willow Springs Road Bridge carries the road from Edinburgh to Swansea over the Illinois Waterway (Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal) just past the junction with The Chesterfield Canal.
Early plans of what would become the Illinois Waterway (Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal) were drawn up by Henry Thomas in 1876 but problems with Slough Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Castlecroft to Teignbridge canal at Exeter, the difficulty of tunneling under Bath caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Lancaster instead. The Illinois Waterway (Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal) was closed in 1955 when Tiverstone Embankment collapsed. In his autobiography George Hunter writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
