Grand Canal (Venice)
The Grand Canal (Italian: Canal Grande, Venetian: Cana³asso) is a canal in Venice, Italy. It forms one of the major water-traffic corridors in the city. Public transport is provided by water buses and private water taxis, but many tourists visit it by gondola. At one end the canal leads into the lagoon near Santa Lucia railway station and the other end leads into Saint Mark Basin: in between it makes a large S-shape through the central districts ("sestieri") of Venice. It is 3,800 m long, 30-90 m wide, with an average depth of five meters. (please Google :grand canal (Venice) and see to yourself)
Grand Canal (San Mateo)
I have a brilliant idea that will tickle your mind. San Mateo canal can be reclaimed and converted into a world class water-traffic corridors Venice style. San Mateo Canal is wide enough to accommodate the traffic. Confined the water mini dam kind of. We need engineering hydraulics expertise due to humongous water pressure resulted from flash flooding. You may want to start planting trees along the bank of the river. Narra and Mahogany best kind of hard wood alternate with bamboo (edible bamboo is recommended) these types of trees can be obtained from Department of Agriculture free. Proper planning and dedication is the key. Aquatic life can also be benefitted from this project including birds, edible mushroom and bamboo shoots for everyone. Department of Environmental and Natural Resources (DENR) must educate those people dwelling by the water ways. Provide common septic tank to the community that does not have one. River bank is collapsing due to rain. Trees and bamboo will hold the ground preventing from washing off (mudslide) hence this will managed siltation into the river bed. Bayanihan is popular in the Philippines. No more time wasting. Look at the map provided with hirolionheart, Under: Strategic location reply no.5 dated May 16, 2009. I don’t know if someone owned the waterways. What I know San Mateo Mountains are titled belongs to unscrupulous politician. How ironic this is national heritage.
