Final Green Lane Update

From the following sequence of pictures you can see Green Lane Aqueduct on the Lower Peak Forest Canal in Romiley after repair work to fix a serious leak. As you may recall two separate attempts were made or the second visit was planned as the pointing of the wall where the most water was coming through was not done until after the first visit. There is still a small "weep" in the arch of the aqueduct

The spot where most of the remedial work was carried out.

Looking North towards Woodley Tunnel

Looking South towards Hyde Bank tunnel.

As I pass this spot quite regularly I will watch for further activity and report if there are any significant changes.

Green Lane Aqueduct Further update

The contractors have been on site again most of last week. I havn't had time to look or take any photo but last wednesday the leak had stopped again so I presume the dams have gon in again. the machine that lifted the puddle up to the towpath was there so they were up to something. I should be avle to visit the site Tomorrow.

Green Lane Aqueduct Update

The dams have been removed and the aqueduct re watered but the wall below is still leaking. The day after this machine was used to lift extra puddle up to the towpath.

Later in the day this was the scene still got the temp fence round the place where the

cement grout was added.
Another view of "The place where the leak was" showing the puddle that has not even been

tramped down.
A view from the top showing the aqueduct walls still leaking.
I wonder if B.W. will be paying their contractors for "nearly fixing the leak?".
