Distance

Droitwich Junction Canal Works
It would appear that a segment of the River Salwarpe is to be drained and the river flow pumped round to a point downstream. This is the discharge end of the bypass by Swan Drive bridge. This was not running when seen.

The canalisation of the River Salwarpe.
This shows the water being returned from upstream of the dewatered section. The line of the left bank of the canalised section is now clearly demarcated by sheet piling. There is an earth cofferdam in the foreground.

The canalisation of the River Salwarpe
This section is nearly complete. In the distance there is a shallow stretch to be dredged but the foreground and middle distance of the river appears to be full depth. The towpath is being constructed in the left hand bank and contains the bywash pipeline that connects the two canals around the river section. The left bank is formed by sheet piling but the right bank is a profiled earth embankment.

Canalisation of the River Salwarpe
Building works are in full flow between Swan Drive bridge and the town. There is still some work to do here and I wonder if a bypass around cofferdams will be installed to dewater the river bed (as has just been completed upstream).
