Silt Threatens Gloucester Docks Legacy

from Bristol News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

With the Canal and River Trust pouring a third of their national dredging budget into recovery and already removing 37,000 tons of silt, they’re fighting to save the docks—and Nielsen’s legacy—before it’s too late.
