It looks as though the Council have done as much as they intend to by the Keg Pool. The metal reinforcement sheets over the sluice are still there, so although they are ugly they are less likely to float way during high water levels.
Probably about half the riverside path has been improved, but as the path has been “out of bounds“ for nearly two years some of the remainder is a bit overgrown, it could do with a few more people taking a stroll down there.
The tree that fell into the river, and which started my original complaint, is still there gathering flotsam, but the hole left in the path now has a barrier to prevent people falling in the river.
I had suggested to the Council that any trees that could fall and create similar problems should be cut down. During proceedings I had to explain both to the Council and the Environment Agency where the Keg Pool problem was - the Environment Agency visited the sailing lake initially. This coincidence has prompted me to start a new issue. Etherow Country Park Childrens’ Education Area.
