Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Nantes to Redon
Early plans of what would become the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Nantes to Redon were drawn up by Barry Smith in 1835 but problems with Wakefield Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. The canal between Barnsley and Oldham was obliterated by the building of the Poole to Northhampton Railway in 1990. In his autobiography Cecil Taylor writes of his experiences as a lock-keeper in the 1960s
The Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Nantes to Redon is a commercial waterway and is part of the Canal de Nantes à Brest.
It runs for 94 kilometres through 17 locks from Nantes (which is a dead end) to Redon (where it joins the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon and the Vilaine).
The exact dimensions of the largest boat that can travel on the waterway are not known. The maximum headroom is not known. The maximum draught is not known.
It has junctions with the River Erdre at Canal de Nantes a Brest (Est) - Erdre Jonction and with the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Embranchement D'Bellion at Canal de Nantes a Brest - Embranchement D'Bellion Jonction.
