Check out the weed at speed!!😎🌿 .One of our weed harvesters in London @canalrivertrust @CRTSouthEast recording their route along the canal. #reedandweed #london #timelapse #timelapsetuesday #tugboattuesday #workingboat #canal #canalboat #canalandrivertrust #cleanercanals

To celebrate @CanalRiverTrust awarding @TheRothenGroup their National Floating Plant Provider we held an open day at our wharf. Thank you to all who came & helped make the day a success. Over 150 people attended to share knowledge & learn more about our services & capabilities.

Working with @CRT’s reactive team our 70ft crane boat assisted lifting ops to a lock gate on Oxford canal. The heel post had snapped & the gate was no longer safe to operate. Our fabrication team made a metal bracket which was fitted to the heel post, before lifting the gate back

At TRG, we’re proud to foster a culture of continuous learning & development. Our team have completed over 1000 hours of specialist training in the past 12 months! Staying current with industry standards is key to our commitment to safety, efficiency & excellence. #LAWWeekwire

After the canal breached we worked with @JN Bentley to dredge the canal & install 40m of sheet piles along the Lancaster canal. We deployed our NATO pontoon & 5t digger to dredge & pile with a pusher tug & hopper on site to carry all waste & materials to/from site

Works along the Caldon canal to repair a failing washwall are finished. To fix we used 40ft crane boat & hopper to lift coping stones for safe access to fill voids with concrete sandbags. In total 10 voids were repaired. Click for more info on sandbag wall

We have finished repairs of a failed bywash along a lock in Walsall. The lock is grade II listed so any repairs had to use lime mortar and sympathetic techniques to repair the brickwork. We have shored up the foundations, repaired the brickwork & resurfaced around the lock 💪

Today is #WorldDayForSafetyAndHealthAtWork and we'd like to share how we value H&S all year long. With quarterly company-wide talks on crane boat outrigger leg use to water safety awareness, we cover a wide range of topics to keep our teams sharp, informed, and safe on site👷‍♂️⚓

Maximising the use of a disused channel in Tipton, we completed a full clearance of dense reeds from the navigation🌿Our wide tracked low ground impact 5t digger was used, its 4m reach and extended height allowed us to dredge the opposite side of the waterway with ease!

Working along the Dudley canal we installed a short-term solution to a section of its bank wall failing. Two rows of stone tonne bags were placed parallel along the brick bank, protecting the towpath from collapsing. We used our 55ft crane boat, pusher tug and hopper onsite.

Repairs to the columns under Spaghetti Junction are well underway with the help of our operatives & specialist floating plant. One of our hi capacity 70ft crane boats ‘wey’ along with a pusher tug & hopper are working on this with @CRL_Limited who are repairing each column.

TRG aided @CanalRiverTrust w/a bank slippage. We helped remove c.120t of fallen vegetation w @GroundControlGC & c.150t of soil that was creating a blockage on the Shropshire Union canal. Our narrow beam crane boat with high capacity crane could easily lift larger trunks.

Moving materials by water! Two tugs & 3 hoppers w/operators were utilised by @kiergroup to move over 6t scaffolding, pumps & fuel cubes on a recent job. The site was remote with no easy access for plant onto the towpath so boats were used to move everything from a local wharf.

Clearing our waterways w/@CanalRiverTrust to make them navigable once again! A section of reeds spanning over 180m had taken over the feeder tributary to the Grand Union Canal. Using our 2.5t digger with a long arm, our team cleared the entire width of the navigation.

Lifting and pitching! Our wide beam crane pontoon & shallow drafted tug w/experienced operators have been deployed to help in London with @IvorKingPiling pile for Thames Water. The shallow nature of the watercourse required shallow drafted kit.

Earlier this year we worked in collaboration with @CanalRiverTrust to repair a flood damaged historic bridge washwall & towpath. There were scour holes & collapsed towpath sections which we repaired w/ sheet piles. We cut back overgrown vegetation then deployed our NATO pontoons

Our team have been working w/ @CRT to clear 7km of reeds & bullrushes that have been dominating a large portion of the Wendover Arm. The Wendover Arm is a feeder arm for the GU providing vital water management. We deployed our Truxor weed boat to cut and clear the reeds.

Keeping our local waterways clear of reeds & bottom-growing weed! Working along the Ashby canal to Conkers basin, we have removed approximately 70t of vegetation that was creating a navigational hazard. Visit our website for more info

Check out our footbridge restoration project w/ @jnbentley at Sparth Reservoir, Huddersfield. Our skilled team undertook the installation of the new footbridge from land in just 3 days & delivered the works to a high-quality finish. Info on our services

TRG celebrate International Women's Day

Another job assisting @CRTWestMidlands during the 2024 Winter Stoppages! With an insufficient tread depth & disconnected ladder hoops from the stringers, this lock ladder needed a full replacement. We removed the old, widened the chamber & installed new ladders.
