Yes I happened to drive by the other day, no photo's but I can report the water is flowing well, the banks are green and thriving with wildlife, so all in all a good job was done.
So how do you justify not cleaning ditches/streams and rivers outOn the contrary. It's fascinating to see so many misguided opinions
then that should b more of a reason to be doing maintenance
funny how thousands of acres are disappearing while there’s thousands of extra houses being built plus all the associated roads/ind estates

There will come a point in the near future where the chickens come home to roost for you and the rest of the smug, ignorant, opinionated urban-based cockwombles whose ill-informed nimby interference in matters they know little of undermines the basic building blocks of our country.
Now now... be nice

Remedial work? back a lorry load of silt up to the bridge and tip it over the side and partially block it up and dump a load of drift wood into the river along the stretch the work has been done with a jcb should get it back somewhere near how it was

I would guess it will involve improving the salmon spawning ground, as that was mentioned. What that entails I have no idea. Pretty sure it won’t be dumping a trailer load of stone in the river bed.

River flood that breached banks next to us backs up as its silting up under railway bridge.
Told EA this.
They said silt and such moves each time river floods so dont dredge it...
Taking it to railways as flood smashes trees and all sorts into their bridge now.
See if they ok with that.

He can't, there's no justification at all.
