Windsor Wharves

Windsor Wharves

Windsor's waterfront had an extensive series of tidal wharves for freight service served by several long spurs from the Windsor Railyard. The use of the wharves declined as shipping to Windsor fell off after World War II. All traces of the wharves were removed when the Windsor causeway was constructed in the 1970s.
