The Broad Authority have issued two NTMs, NTM 01 and 02 of 2023 regarding dredging work on the Upper River Ant and a temporary closure of Sutton Staithe to facilitate the dredging works.
The Broads Authority have approved a 13% toll charge increase for this year.
The Chair of the Norfolk & Suffolk Boating Association has said, “Over some 18-years at least, Tolls have increased year-on-year to such an extent that where once The Authority was funded 60% by DEFRA, this proportion now approaches only 40%. DEFRA perceives a subservient Broads Authority able increasingly to pass-on pain onto Tolls income in order to fix its own operational underfunding. Indeed, why should DEFRA pump more government funds in when Services appear to be holding up.
At some stage the Broads Authority needs to conduct a grass-roots stringent Savings-Exercise in order to report to DEFRA which existing Services will no longer be maintained [data suggest the savings-exercise be levelled at a 60% reduced level of Operations].”
Notice is hereby given that Neatishead Staithe 24hr mooring will be closed to navigation for re-piling and refurbishment work from Monday 23 January 2023 until Friday 31 March 2023.
If there is a specific need for access to the mooring please contact Adrian Sewell on 01603 756066.
Thank you for your patience whilst these works are undertaken, and please contact the Broads Authority, Yare House, 62-64 Thorpe Road, Norwich, Norfolk, NR1 1RY Tel (01603) 610734 if additional information is required.
The BA have informed us that due to a dangerous tree adjacent to Neatishead Staithe, which has been assessed as a safety risk to persons and vessels using the site, they have taken the decision to temporarily close the mooring.
Emergency tree works to rectify the issue have been planned for 12 November 2022, after which the mooring will be opened again.
Signage and fencing is in place to prevent access to the staithe whilst these works are taking place.
