Acrefair Culvert Clearance


Last Friday I was busy with volunteers from Maelor Angling Association and Cefn Mawr Community Council clearing a blocked culvert in Acrefair – What must have been several tonnes of debris, vegetation and litter had collected over the years and were blocking the channel and could have caused local flooding – Full marks to Maelor Angling Association for devising a winch system to lift the debris from the culvert safely!

After several hours we managed to clear a channel through the debris allowing the water to flow more freely – More work is required however to fully clear the channel and we hope to complete the work later this month
