The Calder and Hebble Navigation is a broad inland waterway, with locks and bridgeholes that are suitable for 14-foot-wide (4.3 m) boats, in West Yorkshire, England. Construction to improve the River Calder and the River Hebble began in 1759, and the initial scheme, which included 5.7 miles (9.2 km) of new cuts, was completed in 1770 and has remained navigable since it was opened. Significant improvements were made, including the Salterhebble branch to Halifax, opened in 1828, and ever-longer cuts to bypass river sections. Trade was assisted by the opening of the Rochdale Canal in 1804, which provided a through route from Sowerby Bridge to Manchester. There were plans to abandon the river sections completely in the 1830s, but these were modified as the needs of mill owners and other ripari

  • Die Calder and Hebble Navigation ist eine breite Binnenwasserstraße mit Schleusen und Brücken in West Yorkshire, England, die für Boote mit einer Breite von 4,3 m (14 Fuß) geeignet ist. Die Bauarbeiten zur Verbesserung der Flüsse Calder und Hebble begannen 1759. Das ursprüngliche Projekt, das 5,7 Meilen (9,2 km) neue Einschnitte umfasste, wurde 1770 fertiggestellt und ist seit seiner Eröffnung schiffbar geblieben. Es wurden bedeutende Verbesserungen vorgenommen, darunter der 1828 eröffnete Salterhebble-Zweig nach Halifax und immer längere Einschnitte zur Umgehung von Flussabschnitten. Der Handel wurde durch die Eröffnung des Rochdale-Kanals im Jahr 1804 gefördert, der eine Durchgangsstrecke von Sowerby Bridge nach Manchester bot. In den 1830er Jahren gab es Pläne, die Flussabschnitte kompl (de)
