50-100 prisoners should volunteer and that canal would get cleaned up properly
-
If you're not dredging it, how do you get rid of the muck and silt that flows in and accumulates and will eventually make the canal not passable?
-
WWII bomb being chucked to the side at end, had me cracking up!!
-
Excavator and trucks would be the way to go
-
Makes you wonder what interesting things are lost out of sight where they've sunk in the mud
-
Can’t quite agree with the river trust man. Remove rubbish yes, but the silt is also a problem. Get a mechanical grabber in there. It will have to be done at some time.
-
It can literally take eternity to clean that mess up... Such a muddy snapshot of contemporary history
-
He said to dredge a canal would be environmentally invasive. So under what circumstances does the canal trust dredge, because this canal looks ripe and ready, regardless. Another way to bypass maintenance costs. Local authorities use the same excuse to avoid tree pruning, ie birds nests.

As someone who's managed multiple projects .. this whole "manual" item by item cleanup would drive me nuts! It's a very inefficient way to clean up the canal. You need some machinery to start scoping stuff in mass and getting them into waiting dump trucks. But maybe I'm missing the point. I wonder if a year later they got it clean.
-
Thanks for the explanation on dredging. I was watching several of these & wondered why. I saw one in Manchester On YouTube (I’m in central US Oklahoma) & that gentleman did say they were dredging that locke
-
Wow, time-capsule indeed
-
Thousands of volunteers would come if they called to come clean it
-
Remember i was helping clear a canal in Germany we accidently found a few un exploded bombs from Bomber planes that did not detonate since finding unexploded bombs was not new everyone just went and left and put flag rods around the area to makesure noone would accidently walk near it

Would it no make more sense to save the fish and the ducks transport them then bring in digggers and clean the thing
-
Hi there do they ever get some of the mud sludge etc out of there ??
-
Do you get to keep what you find? Looks like fun
-
Some of those bottles could be worth a bit And what could be on some of those discs 😮
-
Great
