Canals became disused primarily due to the rise of the railway system in the 19th century, which offered faster and more efficient transportation for goods and passengers. Additionally, the advent of motor vehicles and improved road infrastructure further diminished the canals' relevance for freight transport. Over time, maintenance costs and changing economic priorities led to the neglect and abandonment of many canal systems. As a result, they fell into disrepair and were largely replaced by more modern transportation methods.
