Poynton Town Council have recently instructed an
independent reservoir engineer to provide an opinion on the Spillway
Improvements proposed by Cheshire East.
The Engineer visited the site and met with
representatives from the Town Council, Friends of Poynton Pool and the Flood
Working Group and provided an initial report to the Town Council.
Following
receipt of the inspection reports and options papers from Cheshire East for the
Pool we have now asked the Engineer to review these additional documents and
provide a further opinion on the proposed works.
View the following documents below.
