I've had a lot of emails from different directions asking me to comment on the proposed improvements for the West Reservoir.
These were floated in the vaguest terms some time ago, and have now been put forward in more definite form on a Commonplace West Reservoir consultation.
On the landscape options there may possibly be two new bridges over the New River.
One would be at the Lordship Road end of the reservoir, completely new and providing access not previously possible.
The second might be a replacement for the existing bridge near the Castle Climbing Centre
For the centre itself a completely new cafe is proposed, as well as a small enclosed area for beginner wild water swimmers.
Thefull Commonplace gives a lot more detail and the opportunity to add your own comments, though not unfortumately to read the comments of others.
