Additional information

The works that were being carried out were in connection with the Banbury Flood Alleviation Scheme commissioned by the Environment Agency. This is to the East of the bridge and extends to (Little) Bourton Lock No 27. Earth movers crossed this bridge carrying earth for the 2.9 metre high embankment in which two flow regulating flumes have been installed to back up the water flowing in the River Cherwell to fill a temporary catchment on the fields behind the embankment. There are no moving parts in the project. It is designed to keep the levels in the river below the barrier to within those expected of a "100 year event".In the past two years it has been in full operation once already.
