Emergency Power Generator at Ogi-bashi Lock
Due to ground sinking occurred during the 20th century, the area at the west of Ogi-bashi Lock is below sea level. It was necessary to make the water level there, but the river was an important transportation way. That is the reason why the lock was built.
I took this photo at Ogi-bashi Lock, it has an emergency power generator, so that the lock would work at the time of a disaster.
