Back at base so here is this weeks (plus last weeks is properly posted on the NtM pages)
Permanent
None this week for the area!
Temporary
1. London Array have thankfully published this week. There is extensive work going on on the edge of Foulger's this week (at least two turbines plus other stuff). Consider it effectively closed. We won't be thanked for trying to get through. Cable Laying - the ship is just clear of Whitstable Street. Hard to judge its likely progress but possibly out to the Wind Farm at the end of this week, beginning of next week.
2. The Ipswich Lock will be closed between 1700hrs and 1830 on Thursday (5th) because of the passage of the Olympic Flame. See the notice for last and next lock in times. Maybe this is a good place to view?
3. Newly designated turning area for the Wallesea Ships in the Crouch and the placing of a new yellow special mark and some yellow speed buoy movements. We are asked to keep clear when ships are manoevering (usually towards the top of the tide).
4. Notice from Medway Ports regarding the Keel, Wayfarer and Sonata Nationsl in the Medway and Sea Reach on various dates in July.
5. Outer Harbour Construction work starting again at Great Yarmouth.
6. Greenwich, River Thames, some river closures at night time for cable rigging and derigging.
7. And finally, repetition of the temporary movement or removal of the East Swale buoys to facilitate the cable laying.
That's it.
