The Elan aqueduct crosses Wales and the Midlands of England, running eastwards from the Elan Valley Reservoirs in Mid Wales to Birmingham's Frankley Reservoir, carrying drinking water for Birmingham. It delivers enormous quantities of water by gravity across the mid-Wales countryside, through north Herefordshire, south Shropshire and into the West Midlands through eleven major river valleys. The aqueduct is 73 miles (117 km) long, down which the water travels at less than two miles per hour (3 km/h), taking one and a half days to get to Birmingham. (en) El Acueducto de Elan (en inglés: Elan aqueduct) cruza Gales y la región central de Inglaterra, corriendo hacia el este desde los embalses del vlle Elan en Mid Wales al embalse Frankley de Birmingham, conduciendo el agua potable a Birmingham. El Ofrece enormes cantidades de agua través de los campo de mid-Wales, por el norte de Herefordshire, al sur de Shropshire y en el West Midlands a través de once grandes valles de ríos. El acueducto es de 73 millas (117 km) de largo por donde el agua viaja a menos de dos millas por hora, tomándole un día y medio el llegar a Birmingham. El primer tramo de la obra, de 13 millas (21 km), desde Elan Valley, comenzó en junio de 1896, a cargo del Birmingham Corporation Water Department. El acueducto fue construido en secciones por contratistas externos, que usaron tres tipos distintos de construcción, según la naturaleza de los terrenos. El esquema inicial se abrió en 1906, con dos tubos de 42 pulgadas de diámetro. Entre 1919 y 1961 se añadieron dos tubos más de 60 pulgadas. (es) |
