MARINE NOTICE, No. 44 of 2016
Erne System Lower Lough
Belleek – Rosscor Bridge
Inspection Works
Waterways Ireland wishes to advise masters and owners of vessels that bridge inspection works will take place from:
Mon 30 May to Fri 3 Jun, between the hours of 0800 and 2000 daily.
An underbridge inspection unit will be lowered from the bridge deck for this work and will reduce the available airdraft. No passage should be undertaken when this unit is in place.
On Thursday 2 Jun it is expected that the navigation span will be worked on and a manned safety boat will assist with the safe passing of any boat looking to navigate through the bridge. Approaching craft will be alerted to stop, the underbridge inspection unit will be raised and the craft permitted to safely pass through.
Masters are requested to note any directions and instructions from the safety boat during these operations
Waterways Ireland thanks its customers for their cooperation in this matter.
C.J.Lawn, Inspector of Navigation, 24 May 2016
