Coddy Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Don't forget that from 15th Dec the Old Town Lifting Bridge will re-open (well may be :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ) If you are entering Poole Sea Angling Cod comp on the 17th Dec be aware you may have to allow more time!

Brian Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 It'll probably be broken down by the 17th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 I don't understand, surely if the bridge is open then travel time will be shorter, why allowing extra time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Fisheagle Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 The Bridge will be closed most of the time. When Coddy says re open it means it will lift/ re open at times shown in the Harbour Commissioner Notices to Mariners displayed on their website. This will allow vessels which have a high air draft to pass underneath. In my case, I need an air draft clearance of 1.70 meters with radar arch, aerial etc lowered. Allan.

Brian Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I don't understand, surely if the bridge is open then travel time will be shorter, why allowing extra time? Re-opening to cars. i.e. Won't have at least one leaf permanently raised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
