This morning, Gilleards have begun building a birdwatching hide for us at Moore Lake. They expect to have their work completed by the end of Tuesday 30 August, but will not be working over the bank holiday weekend. More work will then have to be done before we can open it for visitors' use. Our work will involve fencing and screening the approach, so that sheep don't escape and birds don't see the visitors coming and going.
Contractors for the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway have placed some signs at points where the busway crosses paths and the road to the car park, saying "this area is closed" - this really means the track alongside the busway, and nothing more. We are still open for visitors!
