CUTS TO ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
Assuming you received notification from British Waterways Scotland, you should all be aware that on Monday 3rd October, there will be a temporary loss of electricity supply to the bollards at Dochgarroch due to annual maintenance. Though BW did not inform you of how long power would be off for, I understand it could be up to six hours but hopefully works will be carried out in much less time.
You may have been aware that yesterday, Thursday 29th September, there was a loss of electricty supply due to quaterly maintenance. Apparently, about a year ago, we were sent a letter asking us to inform BW if we wanted prior notification of quarterly maintenance power cuts. Can't say I remember such a letter but may have overlooked it (hence no notification). I understand BW received only one reply from said letter (who did receive notification). If you did not receive the letter or overlooked it, or forgot about it and want future notification, please let us or BW know about it.
What you won't know is that on Tuesday 11th October, there will be a further power cut at Dochgarroch, this time by Scottish Hydro. No further information is known about the timing of this, but am working on it. BW informs me that they have just received notification themselves and will stick up a poster. What a load of bollards! Not good enough! am working on that one too!
If you have any appliances, or whatever on timers, or live aboard, or are planning a visit - Be Aware.
Please feel free to leave a comment, the more that can be fed back to BW the better.
Strength in Association!
Will update asap.
