Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway
|
|
Length: 234 miles (377 kilometers)
The Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway in Alabama and Mississippi was constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 1972–1984, connecting the Tennessee and Tombigbee rivers. The waterway flows from northeast Mississippi, running south from the Tennessee River and crossing into Alabama at Aliceville Lake, then south-southeast toward Demopolis, Alabama. The constuction of this waterway increased commerce by shortening the distance of waterborne shipping from many states to the Gulf of Mexico.
