Vegetation control was the theme for both BCS task parties in November. The first continued with offside/onside cutting between bridge 89 and the junction. Skippy's hold was filled up 3 times, the arisings being transported to the junction water point and stacked. The steps at bridge 90 (A45) and the junction island were also strimmed.
The second task party saw a group of 8 tackle offside/onside cutting between the junction and the stop house. Skippy again proved invaluable as 3 loads of arisings were added to the ever growing stack at the junction water point to await chipping.The crew also managed to fit in a well deserved stop, mid-morning, for a bacon butty and coffee at Daisy's. Thank you Daisy and Lloyd.
