If they take all the silt out of the rivers theirs more room for water,if they put the silt on the top of the bank theirs even more room for water and less flooding, so this should be taking place all over the UK .
Exactly . Woop woop . Someone who thinks and says the same as me . Unfortunately yet again too many brainwashed idiots who think they know better and can’t see that . Probably because they’ve never lifted a spade , worked an excavator, driven tractors in mud and done anything to redirect a water course .
The arteries of the country need maintenance and looked after , just like the vessels in your body otherwise they clog up and then you’re in trouble !!! Bring every machine in the country to dredge from sea ti source . The mud excavated from the rivers is very fertile indeed so adds even more benefits ti spreading it on nearby land .
Would have been nice to see the old 22 R-B's doing it - But since I've got the old girl that last worked on the River Parret, and I've owned her for the last 14 years, I guess that there hasn't been much dredging done until now !Long reach is very elegant, but dragline is much more fuel efficient - why move all that front end equipment, when all you need to move is the bucket ? !
the elvers hate the sludge this job is slowing down the pushing tides and is bilding more mud banks from dunball down to burnum five years from now this will block burnum bar this will be a big problum for hinkley seaworff at comwich for the transport of goods by ship the mane problum is the tides are slowing the back wash of silt .ps elverman for 30;years
Hello, Thank you for your comments as you seem to be very aware of the machinery. Do you work in this field? If you do I would like to speak with you about a a client looking for polluted river solutions. Thank you
Eva Rojas Good morning to you ! Thank you for your interest, but I’m retired now, and probably forgotten much of what I used to know . . . . Land and Water, who were the company doing this work, would, I’m sure, be pleased to advise you on specific jobs . . . . Kind regards, Steve.
How big a kite did you have to use for the aerial camera work? Did you use a cordless drill to reel it in so fast. I used a big "Happy Birthday" balloon years ago for a camera, but it was so slow and cars kept honking and waving at me.
I like prefer to use pigeons but they don't always return the camera. It can be months before you see it again, if you're lucky. So we started to use sim cards and upload that footage to the cloud just in case the pigeons don't return. 😂
One reason for the flooding is because they keep putting down tarmac in Taunton Yeovil and all the other small towns in the area and it will get worse the water can't soak away anymore it will get worse and worse and the levels will have to be abandoned.
The spoils need to be disposed of freely. When the environment agency dredge rivers they cannot spend millions sending it off in lorries so snowflakes and cannabis thinking folk wouldn't come to harm if they walked onto the spoils. Humans have grown up with learning that traffic and trains kill so why can't they be told not to walk on spoils dredged up from rivers and canals can kill.
I just don't understand why we are not re-cutting all the inland water ways from side-ditches, creeks, rivers, ponds, etc. Water displacement to ease flooding, rising waters, etc. Now run it though a gold sluice, what the hell
Land and water wanted to hire me a few years back £14 phour 😂 what a bloody joke I hope they are paying there operators a decent wage these days after all these are the guys doing the graft management dig deeper in your pockets

Simon Perry I’m self employed mate I just exspect a decent rate it’s not much to ask for you can keep the company car I don’t sit in traffic I have a very nice ktm 950 super moto that I would never change and I get my 19ph due to being very exsperienced and having good reliable contacts they treat me well and in return the work I do is done well 👍
Simon Perry and as for the shitty dreamer dole comment.... fuck off and when you get there fuck off some more 😂 I work for a living you come across like a white collar knob end trying to cream off wage rates as you obviously think 14 ph is reasonable lol..... muppet

We badly needed this in Philippines where we’re surrounded by rivers

sludge pumping dredging barge is even more efficient!😊
Very interesting and informative, thanks for sharing this me
Great Video!
Wow, mantap

Dredging machine?

i like this job .i'm a candidat
excellent production, shoud instead have more likes
shame they haven't reconnected the river to the canal!
seems like a very slow way of doing things
Name a faster way
Dredging machine..we use in the rivers to pull out sand
@@chezzylee Pontoon water jets with suction, does the job in minutes not hours and delivers where you want
No way to pump out the bottom
its a deep river ,
Sup with the word music
Could have done without the music.
WHY????
a long, slow process...need to get advice from the Dutch on how they clean rivers etc.....

These are not rivers, just glorified drainage ditches with little ecological value and probably a degraded ecosystem.
They should make all waterways in Britain like this
Appalling and short sighted measure. Dredging does little to help flooding and is hugely damaging to the environment.
