Based on the experience of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, an emergency shutoff gate was installed in 1999 to automatically stop water flow when a levee breaks due to a major earthquake. Fujio Bridge ahead of it was the first bridge that was constructed during canal work. The red brick and stone foundation are still active today.
This is also the route operated by Lake Biwa Canal. Can you really pass? !
阪神淡路大震災の経験から、大地震による堤防決壊時に水流を自動停止する緊急遮断ゲートが平成11（1999）年に設置されました。その先の藤尾橋は疏水工事で最初にできた橋。赤レンガと石造りの土台は当時のまま今も現役です。
ここもびわ湖疏水船の運航ルートです。 本当に通れるのか？！
