Because it’s such a massive task, it should be expected that a large number of people will be involved in its completion. Hundreds, if not thousands, of workers, are tasked with ensuring that everything is done effectively and accurately, as shown in the photo. Not to mention without endangering anyone.

It’s a dangerous process to undertake because so many things can go bad at any time. The canal had previously been drained in 2001. It’s natural to consider such an event thrilling because it occurs only once every ten years. To take on such a massive task, the workers must make numerous preparations. Obtaining all of the necessary machinery and equipment is difficult for the municipality.
