Big thanks to all the enthusiastic community volunteers that joined us this morning to clear litter and blanket weed from the Maidenhead Basin at Chapel Arches. Hard work, but enjoyable and rewarding!
Reconnaissance mission to check how badly blocked Bray Cut is due to unmaintained bank side foliage and fallen trees.
Another successful stream clearance work-party on Saturday to secure northern flows for the Maidenhead Waterways. All volunteers welcome!
A super volunteer team out today clearing dense weed that was impeding flow at NT Widbrook Common. Banks left untouched for habitat.

If you were wondering, the water level in the channel when flow is returned and the weir added will be just below the timber cladding. xitter.cf/rowansingh/status/7818…
..and finally a sneek preview of the new amphitheatre on the Library lawn - due to be unveiled end November
The next section of the enlarged waterway channel - just north of the A4/St Cloud and next to TOR building - is fast taking shape.
Congratulations to the joint NT-MW team that cleared 250m of weed-choked channel at Widbrook on Saturday to improve the flow
