News from Rickmansworth Liberal Democrats
Since the flooding last year the Environment Agency has been working with TRDC and local landlords at Scotsbridge to support the River Chess banks. TRDC has cleared the side channel of debris and vegetation and dog damage to the banks has been regularly repaired using sandbags. The EA's contract has now started, with the compound being set up this week, followed by tree management including removing low vegetation, some pollarding , some crown lifting and then the removal of material from the river. This de-silting is expected to finish by 17th February. Water levels will be reduced on completion. The material to be removed from the mill stream must be disposed of off-site as it is too rich in nutrients to be spread on adjacent farm land. This will mean about 20 lorry movements a day along Park Rd and Scots Mill Lane. Residents are asked not to park at the junction of Copthorne Rd & Park Rd while the work is underway to prevent access problems for lorries involved in the work. http://youtu.be/HgLO_rpaJFM
