An algal growth has formed a scummy layer on top of the river in this reach just downstream of the Cedar Road culvert and soon attracts litter. On the left is a water level gaugeboard. Each black and white bar on the board is one centimetre wide, and the top of the topmost black bar is 17 metres above sea level.
