  • Canal Grande (The Grand Canal)
    Canal Grande (The Grand Canal) Night shot of the Canal Grande or Grand Canal of Venice, Italy The Canal Grande and the Canale della Giudecca are the two most important waterways in Venice. They undoubtedly fall into the category of one of the premier tourist attractions in Venice. The Canal Grande separates Venice into two distinct parts, which were once popularly referred to as 'de citra' and 'de ultra' from the point of view of Saint Mark's Basilica, and these two parts of Venice are linked by the Rialto bridge. The Rialto Bridge is the most ancient bridge in Venice.; it is completely made of stone and its construction dates back to the 16th century. The Canal Grande or the Grand Canal forms one of the major water-traffic corridors in the beautiful city of Venice. The most popular mode of public transportation is traveling by the water bus and by private water taxis. This canal crisscrosses the entire city of Venice, and it begins its journey from the lagoon near the train station and resembles a large S-shape through the central districts of the "sestiere" in Venice, and then comes to an end at the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute near the Piazza San Marco. The major portion of the traffic of the city of Venice goes along the Canal Grande, and thus to avoid congestion of traffic there are already three bridges – the Ponte dei Scalzi, the Ponte dell'Accademia, and the Rialto Bridge, while another bridge is being constructed. The new bridge is designed by Santiago Calatrava, and it will link the train station to the Piazzale Roma.

Trinity College Digital Repository, Hartford, CT. https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/fypapers/25 Venice and Its Location 1 Venice and Its Location Chloe Cho Urbanization, the process of an urban area’s physical growth, is usually triggered by a city’s cultural, religious, political, or economic significance. Often, such significance is determined by the city’s geographical location which relates to important aspects like access to water routes and other cities. Venice serves as a great example of a citiy that was heavily influenced by its location. The challenges it faced as a city on the water, along with the advantages it had as a bridge between the west and east, led to a peculiar urban and architectural development. Its rapid growth and the monuments built during the Byzantine Empire remarkably illustrate such impacts of its location. Venice, located in northeast Italy, is composed of 118 islands which are separated by canals and linked by bridges. The city was originally founded in the seventh century, by the mainland Romans who were fleeing barbarian

  • Measure Results
    Access and traffic management in the Grand Canal through ARGOS Measure title: (Automatic Remote Grand Canal Observation System) City: Venice Project: MOBILIS Measure number: 6.11.V A Introduction The measure 6.11 focuses on establishing an innovative control system for boats entering the Grand Canal, the main artery for traffic in the historical city of Venice. The proposed action is part of a large- scale initiative launched by the City of Venice to enforce regulations in force, provide continuous monit oring of waterborne traffic density and flows and contribute to the development of new traffic management policies A1 Objectives The main measure objective is to implement a Grand Canal automatic control and data management system (ARGOS) which supports enforcement of regulations in force and provides continuous monitoring and data which can contribute to the development of new traffic management policies. Objectives through ARGOS are therefore: · to enforce city regulations previously emanated regarding access and speed limits in the Grand Canal limited traffic zone; · to enforce city regulations on other traffic management issues in the Grand Canal limited traffic zone (parking, timetable, wrong way circulation, etc.); · to provide accurate, systematic and continuous measurement of traffic density and flow. The system provides information on the exact number, types and speed of boats navigating in the Grand Canal. This will allow for the development of traffic management policies through instruments such as the water traffic management-modelling tool, which is a MOBILIS initiative (measure 12.6): “Management decision support system for waterborne traffic in Venice”; · to complement other traffic management instruments such as that in measure 12.5 “Satellite control (GPS-GPRS) for water PT services in Venice”.

  • Roads Routes and Canal Systems
    ROADS AND CANALS OF ANCIENT WORLD. ROADS From the earliest times, one of the strongest indicators of a society's level of development has been its road system-or lack of one. Increasing populations and the advent of towns and cities brought with it the need for communication and commerce between those growing population centers. A road built in Egypt by the Pharaoh Cheops around 2500 BC is believed to be the earliest paved road on record-a construction road 1,000 yards long and 60 feet wide that led to the site of the Great Pyramid. Since it was used only for this one job and was never used for travel, Cheops's road was not truly a road in the same sense that the later trade routes, royal highways, and impressively paved Roman roads were. The various trade routes, of course, developed where goods were transported from their source to a market outlet and were often named after the goods which traveled upon them. For example, the Amber Route traveled from Afghanistan through Persia and Arabia to Egypt, and the Silk Route stretched 8,000 miles from China, across Asia, and then through Spain to the Atlantic Ocean. However, carrying bulky goods with slow animals over rough, unpaved roads was a time consuming and expensive proposition. As a general rule, the price of the goods doubled for every 100 miles they had to travel. Some other ancient roads were established by rulers and their armies. The Old Testament contains references to ancient roads like the King's Highway, dating back to 2000 BC.

  • Introducing Venice
    INTRODUCING VENICE A fleet of gondoliers, among others, navigates the riches of the Grand Canal (p125) From the look of it, you'd think Venice spent all its time primping. Bask in the glory of Grand Canal pal- aces, but make no mistake: this city's a powerhouse. You may have heard that Venice is an engineering marvel, with marble cathedrals built atop ancient posts driven deep into the barene (mud banks) – but the truth is that this city is built on sheer nerve. Reasonable people might blanch at water approaching their doorsteps and flee at the first sign of acqua alta (high tide). But reason can’t compare to Venetian resolve. Instead of bailing out, Venetians have flooded the world with voluptuous Venetian-red paintings and wines, music, Marco Polo spice-route flavours, and bohemian-chic fashion. And they’re not done yet. VENICE LIFE With the world’s most artistic masterpieces per square kilometre, you’d think the city would take it easy, maybe rest on its laurels. But Venice refuses to retire from the inspiration business. In narrow calli (alleyways), you’ll glimpse artisans hammering out shoes crested like lagoon birds, cooks whipping up four-star dishes on single-burner hotplates, and musicians lugging 18th-century cellos to riveting baroque concerts played with punk-rock bravado. As you can see, all those 19th-century Romantics got it wrong. Venice is not destined for genteel decay. Billion- aire benefactors and cutting-edge biennales are filling up those ancient palazzi (palaces) with restored masterpieces and eyebrow-raising contemporary art and architecture, and back-alley galleries and artisan showrooms are springing up in their shadows.

Built between 1588 and 1591, it replaced earlier wooden bridges that had linked the districts of San Marco and San Polo since the 12th century. When the last wooden bridge collapsed in 1524, several projects were considered before the city authorities requested plans for a stone bridge in 1551.

D EWITT CLINTON wrote this letter to a friend in 1816 just a day or so after his visit to Buffalo. It reflects his optimism about the proposed Erie Canal. But it is important in another way too. It marks the real beginning of enthusiasm for the great undertak- ing in western New York. Prior to Clinton's visit, western New York canal interest was luke- warm at best. There was some concern, of course. Peter B. Porter of Black Rock was interested. A canal would definitely affect his Porter , Barton, and Company with its monopoly of trade west via its Niagara Portage. The location of the proposed canal was important to him. The Holland Land Company was interested becauseof the impact on land values that a canal would produce. Joseph Ellicott and his boss, Paul Busti, rather doubted that the canal, if begun, would ever be fin- ished, or finished within any reasonable period of time, but they were willing to help.
