Explanation:

Canals and steamboats provided faster, cheaper water transportation, sped the pace of commerce, and strengthened ties between the eastern and western states. Railroads eventually became even faster, traveling at speeds of up to 10 miles an hour. They could travel in any season (unlike canal traffic, which stopped when the water froze) and go anywhere that track could be laid.

Steamers were before long used to ship individuals and merchandise along waterways all through the country. To utilize water transportation, waterways were worked to associate streams, lakes, and seas.
