River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.
These images were taken during the third week of December 2016.
There is s noticeable slowdown in the levels of traffic here with hard material being trucked out of the Slang/Rehills section of the river bank. I reckon this is just about the last day of removals.
I believe the Council have contracted for the removal and transport of soil material from this site to a new (road) construction site down at Calary.
The previous ‘mountains’ and terraces have slowly but steadily shrunk. Mind you, the resultant mess is no more aesthetically appealing.
