@markrwilliamson Sadly, not for the lock. Jesus Green is the nearest place the trucks could get to drop off the pontoons (I quizzed a contractor) It’s one of the colleges to support work on bank or bridge. You super-sleuths poke in planning - there’ll be permission/plans somewhere!

The high environmental impact of the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. Draining a river for artificial snow, destroying a forest, and other crimes against the natural world. Due to climate change the area is 3.6•c warmer than 20 years ago https://t.co/GayqDldBVG

@MonicaHone I can see how that's seem counterintuitive! However, my understanding is that you do need to manage vegetation around small watercourses, to reduce leaf litter & give more light, and this is the right time of year to do it. May the newsletters be helpful?https://t.co/OSscKM7CFx

[Clara Todd @claratee]

@MonicaHone I find this so heartening. There was was a fantastic podcast from Nate Hagens with Rosa Vásques Espinoza that mentioned this 🌎 🐝🌺 https://t.co/pvGt6H7wKx

Lovely tribute to Jean Perraton in the latest @camvalleyforum newsletter. Jean was a keen wild swimmer, encouraging people to reclaim their watery freedom. The Designated Bathing Water Status at Sheep's Green brings hope of a cleaner River Cam. Thanks, J https://t.co/4SrN6Fp0RL
