Activity at Aylesbury

Last week we popped in to Aylesbury Canal Society to collect some post and see some friends.



The Travelodge and multi-storey car park are progressing and now dominate the basin.






 
At Circus Field where the new basin is being constructed, the testing has revealed some leaks  near the dry dock.










The remedy is to inject grouting at very high pressure until it appears in the basin which should indicate that the leaks are sealed.


Meanwhile, the repairs of lock 12 are progressing slowly: CaRT have postponed the repair completion date from Aug to the end  of October. Boats booked in to Aylesbury for the winter will be lifted in by CaRT.
