£30,000
lake project at Highbridge's Apex Wildlife Park is officially
opened
 A
£30,000 project to create brand new fishing platforms and
two new islands at Highbridge's Apex Willdlife Park was officially
completed this week and opened on Wednesday (February 25th).
Dennis
Davey, Chairman of Sedgemoor District Council, joined Ron Parker
and Maurice White from Highbridge Angling Association, and Harley
Cook from Sedgemoor District Council were at the opening, as pictured
here.
Iain
Turner, the Environment Agency's Fisheries Technical Officer for
the Wessex Area, was also on hand to explain the work which has
taken place over the last few weeks.
Burnham-On-Sea.com
reported last week
how modern new fishing platforms have been constructed around
the main fishing lake, along with two new islands (pictured below)
to protect fish and encourage breeding.
The
park received £25,000 of funding from the Environment Agency
and a further £5,000 from Sedgemoor District Council to
create the upated facilities.
