POTW June 9: Trent traffic

Trent Severn Waterway

June 9, 2022

Things are busy on the Trent already and it’s barely June. Mike Gridley sent us this shot last weekend when a glitch created a bit of a lock-through backlog. “Much better day on the Trent Severn Waterway today. A hydraulic pump operating the lock doors a Lovesick Lock and a big portable generator brought into Burleigh Falls Lock allowed us to get to Lakefield today. The saga continues as we head to Trenton!”

Got an interesting shot for our Photo of the Week? Anything boat related! Send it along to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and put POTW in the subject line – your shot could be next.

Parks Canada encourages the public to use caution in and around canal structures and channels. From mid-October to the end of May, the canal’s lock stations are closed and their use is at one’s own risk. Unmarked hazards may exist. Wet leaves, ice, and snow may remain on stairs and walkways and ice conditions on the waterway can vary. Over the non-navigation season, aids to navigation may be missing, off-station or inoperable until next spring.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
