The Cascade Locks and Canal was a navigation project on the Columbia River between the U.S. states of Oregon and Washington, completed in 1896. It allowed the steamboats of the Columbia River to bypass the Cascades Rapids, and thereby opened a passage from the lower parts of the river as far as The Dalles. The locks were submerged and rendered obsolete in 1938, when the Bonneville Dam was constructed, along with a new set of locks, a short way downstream.

  • De Cascade Locks and Canal zijn een historische sluis en kanaal langs een stroomversnelling in de Columbiarivier. Voor de scheepvaart was de stroomversnelling een belangrijke belemmering. De waterwerken maakten de passage veiliger en de rivier werd ook toegankelijk voor grotere schepen waardoor het transport van vracht en passagiers over de rivier kon toenemen. Het project werd in 1896 afgerond. In 1938 kwam de Bonnevilledam, circa zes kilometer stroomafwaarts, gereed. Dit leidde tot een verhoging van het waterniveau achter de dam. De sluis werd overbodig en deels afgebroken of verdween onder het water. (nl)
