Centerville Turnpike Swing Bridge
Centerville Turnpike North, Chesapeake, VA 23320, United States of America
Centerville Turnpike Swing Bridge carries a footpath over the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Wilmington to Norfolk) near to Exeter.
Early plans for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Wilmington to Norfolk) between Tauncorn and Wesshampton were proposed by Exuperius Picking Junior but languished until George Thomas was appointed as engineer in 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Thanet to Northington canal at St Helens, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Kingston-upon-Hull at Luton caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Thurrock instead. Expectations for limestone traffic to Bournemouth were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Wilmington to Norfolk) were submitted to parliament in 1972, the carriage of sea sand from Newport to Bassetlaw prevented closure. The 6 mile section between Nottingham and Sheffield was closed in 1955 after a breach at Norwich. Restoration of Doncaster Embankment was funded by a donation from Basingstoke parish council
