The Indiana Central Canal was a canal intended to connect the Wabash and Erie Canal to the Ohio River.

However, due to the Panic of 1837, Indiana suffered financial difficulties and had to turn the canal over to the state's creditors, and building of the canal was stopped in 1839. The canal was supposed to extend 296 miles (476 km), from Peru, Indiana, to Evansville, Indiana, where it would reach the Ohio River. It was originally divided into two sections, North and South.

  • The Indiana Central Canal was a canal intended to connect the Wabash and Erie Canal to the Ohio River. It was funded by the Mammoth Internal Improvement Act, Indiana's attempt to take part in the canal-building craze started by the Erie Canal. $3.5 million was allocated for the project, the largest piece of the entire $10 million Act. However, due to the Panic of 1837, Indiana suffered financial difficulties and had to turn the canal over to the state's creditors, and building of the canal was stopped in 1839. The canal was supposed to extend 296 miles (476 km), from Peru, Indiana, to Evansville, Indiana, where it would reach the Ohio River. It was originally divided into two sections, North and South. Later, a third section was designated, called the Indianapolis section. Only eight miles (13 km) were completed, with an additional 80 miles (130 km) between Anderson, Indiana, and Martinsville, Indiana, having been partially built. (en)

  • O Canal Central de Indiana (em inglês: Indiana Central Canal) é um canal inicialmente destinado a ligar o Canal de Wabash e Erie ao rio Ohio, na zona central do estado de Indiana, nos Estados Unidos. Foi financiado pelo Mammoth Internal Improvement Act, a tentativa de Indiana de participar na construção do canal, numa febre nacional iniciada pela construção do Canal Erie. US $ 3,5 milhões foram alocados para o projeto, a maior parte da lei de US $ 10 milhões. No entanto, devido ao pânico de 1837, Indiana sofreu dificuldades financeiras e teve que entregar o canal aos credores do estado, e a construção do canal foi interrompida em 1839. O canal deveria prolongar-se por 476 km entre Peru e Evansville, onde chegaria ao rio Ohio. Originalmente foi dividido em duas secções, norte e sul. Mais tarde, uma terceira secção foi incluída, a chamada secção de Indianápolis. Apenas 13 km foram concluídos, com 130 km adicionais entre Anderson e Martinsville, tendo sido parcialmente construídas. (pt)
