In total, we are expected to spend through Fountains £750K this winter, exact total will not be known until all works have been completed Additional works will be delivered by volunteers and our dredging contractors. OSV works on a section does NOT mean that every linear meter of vegetation will be cut back, we are looking at preserving the navigation and ensuring that sightlines etc are keep free from encroaching vegetation. Cutting back encroaching vegetation is a balance between, navigational needs, habitat and cost Felling of trees is not included in the OSV rate. The felling of trees is far more expensive than normal ‘OSV’ works, but the impact of removing a leaning tree can improve a sightline dramatically. The quantity of OSV conducted on a canal could be deceptive, for example, the amount of works conducted on a straight or wide canal is not equivalent to the amount conducted on a narrow or winding canal. .
