Abstract:
The historic Conococheague Aqueduct on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal in Williamsport, MD, USA, affords visitors the opportunity to ride a boat across a historic aqueduct and through a working canal lock. The aqueduct was renovated using a combination of historic and modern materials and methods. The restoration included the construction of a concrete channel with a replica of a timber wall with outriggers.
