In 1915 marked progress in the receipts of the waterway was reflected in a net increase of 103.818. The first half of 1916 showed a steady increase of traffic, though on a rather smaller scale than the progress in the spring of 1915. For the first nine months of the current year, the total approximate receipts were £752,987, as against £530,698 for the corresponding period in 1915, and £457,944 for January-September, 1914.
