Boating on British Waterways’ canals and rivers

BW has 29,000 boats on its network of canals and rivers. Some 25,000 boats have a designated ‘home mooring’ – 8,000 of which are moored ‘on-line’ (i.e. moored along the banks of the waterways themselves). The remainder are typically moored off-line in adjacent marinas or basins.

The majority of moorings around BW’s network are fully occupied and have waiting lists. The popularity of boating is continuing and is set to increase with 11,700 new mooring berths required over the next ten years to meet demand. BW is accordingly encouraging development of off-line marinas to meet demand.

LANDMARK PLANNING APPEAL FOR CANALBOAT LEISURE MOORINGS

In a landmark ruling for Britain’s historic canal network and the 8,000 owners of leisure boats who moor on the banks of the canals, British Waterways (BW) has successfully appealed an Enforcement Notice issued by Kennet District Council for the right to establish long term leisure moorings on its waterways.
