S0093 M0024 S0425 S0082 S0073 S0095 S0080 Two indicative "Canal Hazard Zones" have been created for the Bridgewater, Ashton and Rochdale M0040 S0104 Canals. These have been generated using broadscale 2D modelling to show areas that could S0106 S0098 S0103 S0105 potentially be affected by flooding in the event of S0172 S0100 •Canal Overtop Hazard Zone S0380 S0107 •Canal Breach Hazard Zone. S0391 S0428 S0099 S0427 S0174 S0097 The potential breach locations / areas were sub-divided into two Canal Breach Zones: •Canal Breach Zone A. A walkover survey of the canal was undertaken to identify the embankments S0414 more likely to breach, based on their height and width. This zone shows those areas that would be S0393 affected by a breach of one of these embankments. In this zone a detailed examination of canal breach flood risks is required in a site specific FRA. S0101 •Canal Breach Zone B. Less likely breach locations, such as at wide, low or very low embankments, S0102 were identified by a walkover survey of the canal. At such locations it is more likely that this source of S0426 ASH L TON L CAN S0375 S0109 E AL risk could be scoped out within any site specific FRA. W R I Y E R M0026 It should be noted that these outlines are based on broadscale modelling techniques and G should only be taken as an indication of areas that might be at risk and inform Flood Risk 398000 Assessments. There are a number of uncertainties associated with the simulation of flooding from canals in either overtopping or breach conditions. The assumptions behind the modelling should be considered when using and reviewing the hazard zones that have been produced. Full details of the methodology used to derive Canal Hazard Zones is provided in Chapter 3 of the Level 2 SFRA and S0111 guidance on the use of the Canal Hazard Zones is provided in Chapter 3 of the SFRA User Guide. M0001 The Canal Hazard Zone resulting in a breach from the Rochdale Canal in Oldham has also been included on the map and has been taken from the Oldham SFRA (2010). This was based on a similar broadscale methodology. ME DL OC K T Interactions between the Bridgewater Canal and the River Medlock in Castlefield may result in U L N A N overtopping of the Canal during severe weather events, as shown elsewhere in the SFRA. E N L A S S0005 C P For further information please see the Level 2 SFRA Chapter 3. S0392 I H S S0113 R The Main River information shown in the SFRA is provided by the Environment Agency; the centreline E T S data may deviate from that shown on basemapping due to inherent differences in data resolution. E M0025 H S0116 C L Further information on Main Rivers is provided on the Environment Agency’s website. The mapping N A A N M A of culverted sections of watercourse is a strategic screening only based upon Ordnance Survey C R 1:10,000 mapping and should be confirmed for more detailed studies such as site specific Flood Risk E T M0037 A W Assessment. The canals layer does not necessarily cover all the canal arms, but the modelled T0467 E G overtopping/breaching and hydraulic interactions with rivers and other waterbodies is complete and ID R B accurate as appropriate for a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment. The River Irwell between Victoria Station and Pomona Island is not shown as a Main River on the Environment Agency's Flood Map although Flood Zones related to the river are. The same approach has been taken in this SFRA. The map should be considered when applying the Sequential Test and used to scope the inclusion of COR canal flood risk within a site specific FRA.

  • The Peak Forest
    WW GUIDE THE PEAK FOREST AND ASHTON CANALS You begin in urban Manchester – and 21 miles later, you’re in a historic basin in the glorious Peak District, moored up beside a real pub. Richard Fairhurst savours a fine canal journey The Ashton Canal FOR MANY YEARS, THE ASHTON CANAL was synonymous with all that was wrong with urban waterways. The 1896 Oarsman’s Guide was uncompromising: “Its course is entirely through a manufacturing district with the usual unpleasant surroundings. The vapour rising from its waters caused by the factories on the banks, condensing their exhaust Bugsworth steam therein, is sometimes so thick as Basin. to make it diffi cult to see one’s way.” Downloaded by David A Calverley from waterwaysworld.com June 2012 Waterways World 71 WW GUIDE 1 1 Ancoats Lock 1 – By the 1960s, its star had sunk lower note the duplicated still. Though never formally closed, it was chamber. totally unnavigable: its channel dry, its lock-gates rotten or swinging loose. Local councillors and anxious parents demanded its infi lling. Its branches to Stockport and Hollinwood were abandoned, and the main line, like so many industrial urban waterways, looked set to go the same way. What saved it was an idea fi rst hatched in 1965: the Cheshire Ring. Adventurous holidaymakers were beginning to discover the canal system, and circular routes were perfect for a week’s holiday. The Ashton and adjacent canals would provide the ‘missing link’ in one such route. Volunteers from the Peak Forest Canal Society, the Inland Waterways Association, and (latterly) the new Waterway Recovery 2 Group set about bringing the canal back to life.
