Economic Benefits of the Falkirk Wheel
[ send me this paper ]
A 28 page paper discussing the restoration of centuries-old canals in Central Scotland and the creation of the Falkirk Wheel linking two of those canals, as well as the resulting rejuvenation of the economy of Central Scotland. The planners establishing the method by which the Project would take on various aspects of the overall plan appear to have approached their responsibilities systematically and with precision, with a view to the future. They also appear to have a firm idea of the manner in which growth arises from growth. Commercial development surrounding reclamation of the Forth and Clyde and Union Canals, plus the associated creation of the Falkirk Wheel, has all the appearances of enabling sustainable economic growth in Central Scotland that likely would not have been possible otherwise. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
