    River Soar © Jiri Rezac 2015

    WaterLIFE DEMONSTRATION CATCHMENT FACTSHEET RIVER SOAR © JIRI REZAC 2015 The River Soar is the principle river in Leicestershire, covering a catchment area of approximately 1,380km2 and flowing through Leicester and Loughborough before confluencing with the River Trent. The catchment has a mix of urban and rural land uses, and is home to a wide range of species including the endangered white-clawed crayfish. The Soar Catchment Partnership was established in 2013 by Trent Rivers Trust and has grown considerably in size and strength under WaterLIFE. ISSUES IN THE SOAR Indicative of the industrial heritage of the area, many of the Soar’s watercourses have been modified, with the Grand Union Canal a predominant feature of the catchment. With increasing urbanisation, and due to the modified watercourses being over-wide, over-deep and separated from their flood plain, the Soar is prone to flooding. Soil erosion is also diminishing water quality and exacerbating flooding by blocking pipes and culverts. The sediment also carries particle pollutants such as phosphorus that trigger eutrophication and a further worsening of water quality. Currently, 87% of water bodies in the Soar catchment are failing to meet good ecological status. © JIRI REZAC 2015 RIVER SOAR CATCHMENT AREA © JIRI REZAC 2015 WHAT DID WATERLIFE DO?
