| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "The Great Thames Barrage" by Thomas Walter Barber is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work proposes the construction of a barrage across the River Thames to address the inadequacies of the current port infrastructure. The book delves into the challenges faced by shipping in the tidal Thames and presents a detailed plan that includes engineering solutions meant to modernize and enhance the navigability of this vital waterway. In this publication, Barber argues for the urgent need for a barrage due to complaints about insufficient water depth, tide-waiting, and unsafe navigation conditions in the River Thames. The author outlines various proposed remedies and critiques existing government plans, emphasizing the potential benefits of a dockisation project, including a consistent navigable depth for vessels, increased safety, and significant reductions in operational costs. The text discusses the construction logistics and financial viability of creating this barrage, alongside anticipated improvements in London’s water supply and public health conditions. Barber’s vision presents a transformative approach toward modernizing the Thames, advocating for an innovative solution to the urgent challenges of maritime transport in the region.
