Update on shallows N of Stafford Boat Club, Staffs and Worcs

[gbclive]

An update on the shoal 0.5 miles north of Stafford Boat Club on the Staffs & Worcester. Ie between bridges 96 & 98.

I passed the area this morning and had a brief chat with the team who had just finished dredging. Apparently, there was some oil contamination in a sample from the outfall on the off-side, that was the source of the silt. Perhaps that was the reason for the considerable delay in dredging? Also, I never saw any nav notice, did I miss one?

Anyway, I hope this is good news, especially for any deep drafted boats.
