The local authority said that they plan to start its program to dredge the canal on Monday, November 6. 

The overall dredging operation is expected to complete by the end of January 24, however the exact timeline may be impacted by climate and ecological conditions, said Bude Canal Angling Association.

During the dredging period, activity on the canal will be restricted and day launches will not be available for purchase.

The embankment repairs are expected to complete before Easter 24.
