Earlier this winter, John Slee, NABO's continuous cruising rep, emailed British Waterways with a complaint, that Sally Ash, Head of Boating Services, has described as "well justified".
The aim of this British Waterways consultation is to invite feedback on the mechanics of how BW should develop local mooring strategies. These are proposed as a means of ensuring that, as boating use of the waterways increases, scarce space along the line of the canal is shared fairly between waterway users and general amenity protected for all to enjoy.
