Flood channel on Cartsburn Street
The Carts Burn is culverted at this point and this channel was constructed to control the flow of excess water in the event that the culvert became overwhelmed during flood conditions. An Automated Self-Cleaning Trash Screen was installed at the entrance to the culvert (at the grey fence in the distance) in January 2015 to reduce the risk of such flooding in future (flooding last occurred here in 2011). Further down Cartsburn, the pavement on the west side of the street has been modified to act as further flood channel, with a large drain at its end

Cape Elise off Greenock
Bulk carrier Cape Elise suffered engine failure in the Atlantic 180 miles off Ireland in early February while carrying coal from Columbia to Hunterson. She was towed to her destination and unloaded her cargo before being towed further up the River Clyde to Greenock where she will undergo repairs at the Great Harbour over a three week period.
Four tugs (three of which can be seen here) are preparing to tow the 289-metre-long ship stern-first to the Great Harbour from the Tail O' The Bank between Greenock and Helensburgh. She will be the biggest ship to berth there for more than 20 years.
East India Harbour and Victoria Harbour are in the foreground.
