gaffa Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Next Bridge closures are scheduled as below Mariners are advised that the Backwater channel will be closed to navigation for vessels that are unable to proceed under the closed bridge spans due to their airdarft. Navigation will remain open for low airdraft vessels that can safely proceed. Mariners should proceed past the works at slow speed and keeping wash to a minimum. It is intended to restrict the channel on Wednesday 16th November 2011 from 08:00hrs to 1800hrs, and Thursday 17th November 2011 from 0800hrs until 0800hrs on Friday 18th November. The reopening of the channel will be promulgated by Poole Harbour Control on VHF channel 14. For further information contact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Fisheagle Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Hoping to get out Wed/Thur or Friday subject to weather. Have they fitted an airdraft indicator on the New Bridge since last weekend? Becoming a right pain. Allan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
