About Clarksville Lock and Dam 24
The Clarksville Lock and Dam #24 was completed in 1940. This lock spans the river at Clarksville, Missouri and consists of only one 600-ft lock for an average lift of 15 feet. This lock was the first one constructed under the 9-ft channel project without roller gates. This construction accomplishment was a major leap in lock and dam engineering at that time. It has 15 gates that control the flow of the mighty Mississippi River. More than 90 million tons of commerce move on the river each year. From Clarksville Lock and Dam 24 Web Site
