The aim of the project was to replace a tilting weir that was no longer operational.
GGP were appointed as designers to undertake the project for a new foundation, abutments and concrete apron for the new tilting weir. This was further complicated by the fact that all materials had to be delivered by boat, meaning the design was to be as lightweight and efficient as possible
GGP undertook all stages of the design process, starting with surveys including GI before progressing the design through to the construction phase. This met the client requirements and meant that the weir could be installed.
The weir and foundation were installed by the contractor. The weir is now operational meaning that it can be used to control the water levels.
