Barges: an integral part of the chain of commerce
We've seen a maritime story in the news recently about a barge that was taking on water in BC waters with containers on board. The story highlights how widely barges are used in marine commerce, although most of us don't notice they're out there, functioning as an integral part of the chain of commerce.
In rural areas, they can also be a vital way for people to ship goods locally in a way that is much less expensive than other means.
