• Invoicing boaters for overstays at VMs
• 14 Day reminder texts is resulting in boats moving on (and people like them)
• New CCer Licence process – non renewal for non compliant ccers without

home moorings

• Earlier contact with non compliant boaters from Rangers, Boating Co-
• rdinators and Enforcement Officers
• Old fashioned towpath presence
• Phone contact with boaters

• Hotspot areas to solve particular issues e.g ASB and improper mooring
• Working more closely with Rangers to solve ASB issues and tightening up

enforcement processes and evidence gathering

• Solving problems before they become too big
• Earlier enforcement action for persistent offenders
• Enforcement action to ensure Continuous Cruisers do actually CC –
• Relieve congestion on the network
• Give everyone a fair chance at staying in popular spots
• Prevent new ‘problem areas’ emerging
• Deal with existing ‘problem areas’

• Closer working with stakeholders and CRT colleagues to respond to the

huge increase in boat numbers, the resulting congestion and related inconvenience for both boaters and our land based neighbours

• Investigate possibility of creating more VMs
• Investigate areas where the main length could be used for mooring
• Potential enforcement for non display of boat index and name – it is

important folks! (big resource drain)

• We know the size & location of the

problems

• Focus directed at overstaying & movement
• Help boaters to understand their obligations
