Dredging and reed bed restoration at Hickling Broad

A short video showing sediment being dredged from the channel at Hickling Broad in the Broads National Park. The sediment is being pumped into an area known as 'Chara Bay' and will be used to fill large geotextile bags which will prevent the area of restored reedswamp from being swept away by the wind and waves from the broad. The works began in 2018 and will take place over three winters to create 1ha of new land into Hickling Broad, using 19,000m3 of dredged sediment. The works are being undertaken by the Broads Authority as part of the INTERREG funded CANAPE project (Creating A New Approach to Peatland Ecosystems).
