UPDATE 11 June

Due to low water levels on the eastern side of the canal, specialists have carried out a comprehensive fish rescue in Falkirk that involved safely transporting captured fish to unaffected waters. (2/5)

While we continue to manage water levels in the west there is an urgent need to top up the canal with fresh water in order to safeguard the fish located in this stretch of the canal. (3/5)

We will begin pumping water from the River Kelvin into the Kelvin Aqueduct 12 June 2021. We continue to work in partnership with @ScottishEPA to manage the situation and monitor the potential environmental impact on both the canal and the River Kelivn. (4/5)
