Floating workboats?

WE ARE told that there is to be a new floating mooring pontoon on the Macclesfield Canal between bridges 35 and 36 in Macclesfield.

It is understood these are the new visitor moorings that were promised, so should be a welcome addition, always providing they are short-stay—for visitors.

Linda Andrews tells that the stoppage notice advises that boaters should take care, as the canal will be affected by floating work boats—and provides a picture.
