Danube–Bucharest Canal

The Danube–Bucharest Canal is a 73-kilometre (45 mi) long canal project that is planned to link Bucharest, Romania to the Danube via the Argeș River, and ultimately create direct access to the Black Sea via the existing Danube–Black Sea Canal. The total capacity of the waterway will be 24 million tons/year. The minimum depth is of 4.5 metres and the ships will rise 67 metres over their voyage through six locks and 73km.
